Fourteen hundred feet up in the Alt Penedes, where altitude and cool mountain nights keep the Catalan heat at bay, the Huguet family has farmed this estate long enough to split it into two brands: Can Feixes for the still wines, Huguet de Can Feixes for the sparkling. This is the still one, and it makes a strong case that Penedes shouldn't be an afterthought. It's a blend built on Parellada, Macabeo and Xarel-lo, the classic Catalan trio, rounded out with a little Chardonnay and Malvasia de Sitges, all grown on organically certified limestone and gravel. Sixty-year-old vines, hand sorting, fermentation in stainless steel, then time on the lees for a bit of flesh. Fresh, floral, stony and dry, from a region most people still skip past.
