Vino blanco Celler Credo – Capficat

‘Capficat’, branch that is buried –and without cutting it from the plant from which it comes– gives life to a new strain.

The white wine Capficat comes from the vineyard Serral del Bosc, soils, extremely calcareous and loamy texture (balance between arenas, silts and clays). It comes from a vineyard owned own located in the comarca of the Alt Penedès and cultivated according to the principles of organic farming and biodynamic.

We work the vineyards, leaving to grow a ground cover spontaneous, important to fluff up the soil and regulate the retention and the drainage of water in a rainfed cropping as that practiced. This cover is essential to promote biodiversity and balance in the ecosystem of the vineyard, where we apply treatments with medicinal plants (phytotherapy) to control the presence of fungus and strengthen the strains of a totally natural way. The grape harvest at Celler Credo is carried out always at hand to ensure the excellent quality of the cluster.

Capficat is a praise to the purity and transparency. Does not contain sulfites added, only sulfites own the yeasts generate naturally during the fermentation (<8 mg/l). This is a wine that puts a value on the quality of the grapes and the work from the vineyard. Fermentation –starting yeast from our vineyards– is made in oak barrels used, where the wine remains for a period of approximately a month and a half.

Capficat look for the maximum expression of the terroir and, therefore, you can present natural sediments the result of a minimal intervention. The vinification and the bottling are done in our property.
