Vinestar, Penedes Sparkling, 2023

Hailing from the heart of Penedès, Spain’s premier sparkling wine region, Vinestar’s Penedès Sparkling is a vibrant and easygoing expression of traditional Catalan bubbly. Made primarily from native grapes like Xarel·lo, Macabeo, and Parellada, it highlights the region’s signature freshness and Mediterranean influence. The 2023 vintage brings bright fruit and lively acidity, making this a go-to sparkler for any occasion. Zesty lemon, green apple, and white peach lead, with a subtle floral and almond note from time on the lees. The bubbles are fine and refreshing, giving way to a crisp, mineral-driven finish. Perfect as an apéritif, with tapas, or alongside fresh seafood, this is a versatile and joyful sparkling wine that captures the essence of Penedès.
