In the meantime I also tasted some reds. I sampled two vintages of the same white, starting with the 2012 Silencis, which is pure Xarello harvested on September 5 and 6 from a very dry vintage. Malolactic fermentation was blocked to keep the freshness and the acidity. It has aromas of lime and grapefruit and a light to medium-bodied palate with very good acidity and freshness. Drink now-2016. Raventos i Blanc produce a majority of sparkling wines from their property on the banks of the Anoia River, which is within the geographical limits of Penedes. They also produce still wines, mainly a white from Xarello and some reds, but Pepe Raventos, winemaker and current head of the winery, told me that he-s going to concentrate on sparkling wines and whites only.
