100% Xarel·lo from the Serral vineyard, where 51-year-old vines thrive in a unique microclimate. The thermic inversion creates cool morning breezes, resulting in vibrant acidity that shines through every sip.

Ferran Lacruz hand-de-stems the grapes before fermentation in stainless steel, allowing for 3 weeks of gentle maceration with minimal extraction. After racking off the skins, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and ages in 500L barrels for 3 months—completely free of added sulfites.

Bodega Clandestina

Working 8 hectares around the village of Sant Martí Sarroca, Ferran Lacruz farms organically and keeps everything outside the lines of any appellation. No additives, no filtration, no shortcuts—just grapes, handled by hand, and bottled as they come.

He grew up here, surrounded by vines, shaped by the landscape and the culture of wine from a young age. In 2018, he made his first vintage from his uncle's vines, starting from scratch with a friend and a clear idea: make honest wines that reflect where he’s from, without dressing them up.

The vineyards sit on that classic Penedès mix of clay and limestone, and the wines carry it—sun, structure, and a kind of grounded energy that feels true to the place.

There’s a quiet defiance to what Ferran is building. No appellation, no formula—just a young winemaker figuring it out on his own terms, one vintage at a time.
