A quick summary of this fine ‘orange’ wine from newcomers in the Alt Penedès, Cal Xurriu: light, juicy, clean, and delightfully easy to drink. It’s a fun blend of Xarel.lo, Muscat, and Malvasia di Sitges—notes of citrus rind, herbs, and the pretty fronds of fennel are present. With many “orange wines” tiring us out because they all taste sort of uniform, just like maceration of skins, this is a very pleasant counterpoint, a zero SO2-added, clean and clear calling card from this duo to watch, in the storied winemaking village of Sant Sadurní d'Anoia.

“Wine Shop That’s Worth the Trip”

"Folkways is Spectacular! They are all highly customer focused, and incredibly knowledgeable. They carry interesting wines and spirits, things that are very hard to find elsewhere. (And if they don't have it they'll get it for you.)"
