General Information
Located in the municipality of Subirats, a mountainous area in Alt Penedès, the Can Llopart estate, responsible for producing Carmí 2023, spans 500 hectares of vineyards and forest at approximately 360 meters above sea level. The 100 hectares of estate-owned vineyards are the origin of Llopart's personality, cultivated organically, with the utmost respect for sustainability and the environment.
Tasting notes
The Carmí rosé wine boasts a strikingly intense and vibrant pink color.
On the nose, it reveals sensations of citrus red fruits, strawberries, and cherries, accompanied by balsamic notes and final aniseed touches. Its aging in ceramic jars enhances very subtle earthy notes, fully integrated into a friendly, broad, and refreshing ensemble.
On the palate, it is direct, with good acidity and verticality, where the red fruit notes are sincere and very pleasant. Hints of grapefruit and aniseed memories appear at the end, leaving a persistent and saline aftertaste that invites further enjoyment.
The winery
In the Penedès region, the Llopart family has been dedicated to vine cultivation since 1385, an occupation that became exclusive in the 18th century. In 1887, they launched their first wine on the market and became one of the pioneering firms in the production of quality sparkling wines.
The Llopart family owns the Heredad Can Llopart de Subirats, where the farmhouse and 60 hectares of their own vineyards are located along a hillside. Its particular topography and orientation allow the fruits to benefit from one of the greatest thermal variations in the Penedès, favoring the ripening process. Additionally, the Llopart family has divided the estate into three terroirs based on the different subsoils and microclimatic variations, enabling them to adapt each variety and vine clone to the most suitable terroir.
