I found the 2013 Xarel.lo Pairal unusually exotic and tropical, with aromas of mango and papaya, something herbal and spicy that made me think of a Sauvignon Blanc. Maybe it's the development and I caught it in a weird phase, but it was completely different from the 2014. It felt riper and more polished in the palate. 2,054 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2014 after four months in 450-liter chestnut oak barrels where it fermented.
