A dry Xarel·lo from Recaredo's still-wine project, blending fruit from several Penedès sites.
Winemaker
Celler Credo is the still-wine project of the Recaredo family and team, whose sparkling-wine history dates to 1924. It explores the white varieties of the Penedès, particularly Xarel·lo.
The grapes are picked by hand and fermented with the estate's own yeasts. Different bottlings come from different sites and use different handling in the cellar, from the direct, young Miranius to more textured whites.
Wine
Miranius is Xarel·lo from several Penedès sites. Hand-picked grapes ferment with the estate's own yeasts.
Citrus and apple, with a firm, fresh palate and enough body to carry food. Xarel·lo has a useful savoury side beneath the fruit.
Origin
The Penedès forms a varied landscape between the Mediterranean and inland hills. Limestone-rich and clay soils occur across its vineyard areas, with elevation changing the growing conditions.
