Xanet 2018 Can Xanet

VINEYARD: Finca de Can Xanet, a two-hectare plot located in the north of Mallorca, in the foothills of the Sierra de Tramuntana, with a slight unevenness of 2.7% on a calcareous soil, and overlooking the Bay of Pollensa.
 
WINE FARMING: The vineyard is cultivated following reasonable practices to obtain quality grapes: plant cover between rows, short pruning, green pruning to keep optimal production, phytosanitary treatments only when essential and using the least aggressive ones for auxiliary fauna, thinning of the bunch after veraison and manual harvest with selection of bunches.
 
TO NOTHING:
A hot summer, with little rain throughout the winter and spring, including the veraison stage, and practically nothing between late May and mid-September. The health status of the grapes was optimal.
 
VINTAGE:
Merlot, Syrah and Mantonegro were harvested between August 30 to September 3 and Gorgollassa on September 30, in boxes of 15 Kg
 
VINIFICATION:
After cooling in a chamber at 8ºC, they were transferred to the cellar. The grape was destemmed on top of the wooden trunks, so as not to have to
pump it. It fermented with its own yeasts between 25ºC and 29ºC for 15 days, with two daily punchings, followed by maceration, until the beginning of October. Malolactic fermentation was done in the tanks, before going up to barrels.
 
BREEDING:
The wine is aged for 12 months in 225 and 500 l French oak barrels. (33% new barrel, 33% 1-year-old barrel, 33% 2-year-old barrel), at controlled temperature. After the coupage, it was kept in deposit for 3 months until bottling, on February 26, 2018, and has remained in the bottle until now.
 
GRAPE TYPES: 40% Merlot, 37.5% Syrah, 17% Gorgollassa and 5.5% Mantonegro
