Pairing:

At Made in Spàin Gourmet, we recognize that it is a very versatile wine, ideal as an aperitif throughout the year, by the glass or in harmony with dishes made with white meat, fish, and pasta. It also pairs perfectly with oriental cuisine such as sushi, uramakis, red tuna, basically everything, and let's not forget creamy and aged cheeses.

Elaboration:

The harvest is done by hand. In the winery, the grapes are refrigerated for 24 hours at a controlled temperature of 10 ºC. The final control of the grapes follows, passing through the selection table and destemming. The grapes are left to macerate for two hours before being pressed. After a gentle pressing with low yield, most of the must is transferred to stainless steel tanks and a small amount to French oak barrels (10%) and amphorae (5%), where it ferments at a controlled temperature of 15 ºC. It then undergoes a six-month aging process. The different musts are blended and bottled.

At Can Bas, the wines they produce are honest and genuine. In reality, they are the true witnesses of what has happened in our house over the course of four seasons.

At Can Bas, they are not interested in repeating a wine year after year, nor intervening to achieve an exact copy. Each bottle that leaves their winery reflects the typicality of the estate as well as the climatic and environmental conditions of the harvest in the Penedés region.

At Can Bas, they work every day to obtain wines that, above all, are the expression of the clusters grown in their vineyards and of the spirit that the owners have instilled in them.

At Can Bas, they believe that viticulture and winemaking are not exact sciences. They are rather a practice sustained by intuition, experience, sacrifice, perseverance, obstinacy, good judgment, and the curiosity to innovate. And all this, driven by the work that the hands of their workers dedicate to both the vineyard and the winery.

At Can Bas, they put all their effort into adapting the vineyard work schedule to the needs of each plot, each variety, or each particular vine, following a scrupulous code of good practices. And when it comes time to vinify, they are even more meticulous. Therefore, the result is exceptional wines.

Can Bas is a place where the vineyard has been cultivated for more than two thousand years; a nucleus inhabited since ancient times; a mansion built on an old farmhouse; an agricultural production unit dedicated uninterruptedly to viticulture.

Can Bas is a winery in which, today, they only produce wines from the vineyards of their estate.

Can Bas is a property, a land, a compendium of history, a nexus of culture, the sum of illusions, efforts, knowledge, experience, and work. It is a reference in the geographical framework of Penedès as well as a
