Miranius by Celler Credo is named after the clever fox that ventures into the vineyards of Celler Credo and delights in the sweet aromas of the grapes. The Miranius is a lively, lively wine that ages well in the bottle. Made 100% from the Mediterranean variety Xarel·lo, it is known and loved for its fresh acidity and good palate. Miranius aims to express the richness and particularity of the landscapes of the Penedès region. That is why it is made with grapes harvested from a selection of Xarel lo vineyards spread over three main areas of the territory: Plana del Penedès (Eastern area), Muntanyes d'Ordal (vineyards at an altitude of 400 meters) and Vall del Bitlles. All these vineyards are cultivated according to the principles of organic farming. All Celler Credo grapes are harvested by hand to ensure an accurate selection of the fruit and to guarantee the excellent quality. Furthermore, great care is taken in the maturation of the grapes with the aim of producing wines with natural, fresh acids in order to achieve an expressive and balanced wine. Fresh and white fruit, a nice minerality and good acidity, which makes this just a delicious and very pure glass of white wine.
“The pure Xarel lo Miranius is a style that is approachable, a naked and pure, clean and varietal style (…) The wine shows very good freshness and great balance”. Robert Parker Wine Advocate Luis Gutierrez (91/100)

Recaredo Corpinnat is without doubt a reference for long-aged cavas and, together with Mestres and Gramona, is considered the Grandcru and the top of the cavas. Recaredo also has a silent white wine project and these wines are made under the Celler Credo name. Celler Credo or 'free-of-mind' label from Recaredo. With these still white wines, the Recaredo team discovers what is possible with Xarel.lo from different teroirs and vinification methods.
Impeccable Vins Natural! Recaredo has acquired a number of (very) special vineyards in the Penedès region for the production of refined natural wines. The aim is a pure expression of Xarel.lo where different fermentation methods and maturation processes are used. The wines are made by the well-known winemakers Nuria Arteaga and Ton Mata and they know exactly how to strike the right chord and make particularly pure and energetic wines from Xarel.lo, whereby the wines, as also with the Cavas from Recaredo, have become benchmark wines for ' nature' style Xarel.lo in the Penedès. Aged on the lees, macerated with the skin or stems of the grape, without the addition of sulphites – modern techniques or techniques learned from our grandparents... In short, a thousand and one ways to interpret Xarel-lo. In other words, Xarel-lo is the Credo.
