About Loxarel Àmfores

Amfores is a white wine produced by the Loxarel cellar in the Penedès. It is a varietal Xarelo. The grapes come from a farm, which during the Civil War was used as an airfield. It is situated at an altitude of 250 metres above sea level in the Alt Penedès.

The techniques used for agriculture are organic and biodynamic. Amfores is fermented in clay amphoras of 720 litres.

After this process, Amfores lies in the same containers for about five months. During aging, wild yeasts of the vineyard itself are added.

An amphora is a container that lets the wine breathe and keeps it fresh and constant through the "pitcher" or "sweating" effects.

The Mitjans family decided to start using this method after tasting wines produced in this way in Italy, Slovenia and Georgia.
