Notes
Can Sumoi is the high altitude and low intervention project from Pepe Raventós of the celebrated Raventós i Blanc winery. Can Sumoi focuses entirely on still wine and mono-varietal ancestral method sparklers made from indigenous, mountaintop varieties. The stunning 400-hectare estate of Can Sumoi sits at over six hundred meters of altitude in the Serra de l’Home mountain range in Spain’s northeastern Penedès region. Its 350-year-old farmhouse and stone walls encompass thirty hectares of old-vine Montonega, Xarel-lo, Garnatxa (Blanco and Negre) and Sumoll vines while forests of oak and white pine shade the rest of the property. The vines are cultivated on limestone soils in certified-organic fashion and the resulting wines are produced without additives, stabilization or filtration, alongside minimal or zero additions of sulfur. The wines are tantalizing, low alcohol, refreshing lenses into thoughtful and purposeful coastal/mountain viticulture.
