2020 Celler Credo VI-D-RE BIO

Vi-d-re is a creation of Antoni Mata Casanovas, the second generation of the Recaredo family. Discreet and modest, Antoni Mata Casanovas has worked tirelessly on the management, creativity, representation and oenology of Recaredo. Under the concept VI-D-RE "transparency shows the way" and after more than 60 years of winemaking, Antoni Mata has invented Vi-d-re, a variety of fermented xarello, aged and sealed with only glass, without contact come with any other material.The 100% ). This plot is located in the province of Alt Penedès and has been cultivated according to the principles of organic, biodynamic agriculture. We allow the plant cover to grow spontaneously between the vines. This cover plays a crucial role: it loosens the soil, regulates water retention and drainage (essential in the dry farming system we use) and helps promote biodiversity and maintain balance in the vineyard ecosystem. Natural plant treatments (phytotherapy) are applied to the vines to control the presence of fungi and strengthen the vine's defenses. All Celler Credo grapes are harvested by hand to ensure the excellent quality of the fruit.

Vi-d-re embodies transparency and reflects the quality of the grapes used and the work done in the vineyard. It contains no added sulphites, only those naturally produced by yeasts during the fermentation process (<10 mg/l) so a 100% Vin Natural. The must fermentation takes place in 32 liter demijohns, where the wine is then stored for about five months before being bottled. Celler Credo wines always ferment on indigenous yeast isolated from our vineyards. Vi-d-re tries to express the terroir as fully as possible and can have completely natural sediments due to our minimal intervention. The VI-D-RE is a special pure style of wine, great for wine/food combinations! This organic and biodynamic white wine is a limited edition and is only made in the good years. Of the 2020 vintage, 1,208 bottles were made and these are all numbered.
