Clos Montblanc, Xipella White 2024

Clos Montblanc’s Xipella White 2024 is a fresh, characterful Catalan white that combines local tradition with a clean, modern style. Produced in the lesser-known DO Conca de Barberà, it reflects the region’s identity through a lively blend of Parellada, Macabeu and Sauvignon Blanc, offering both regional authenticity and immediate drinking appeal.

Tasting Notes
Pale straw in the glass with a bright, youthful sheen. The nose is generous and inviting, showing plenty of fresh yellow fruit, lifted citrus, and a subtle floral edge. On the palate, it’s rounded yet energetic, with good volume, crisp freshness and a pleasingly long finish that gives the wine more presence than its easygoing style might suggest. The balance between fruit richness and tension makes it feel both approachable and well put together. While it is best enjoyed for its youth and brightness, the wine should hold nicely over the short term, preserving its fresh fruit profile.

Production
Xipella White is sourced from clay-rich soils in DO Conca de Barberà, a central Catalan region west of Barcelona that is better known to locals than to the wider wine world. The blend of Parellada, Macabeu and Sauvignon Blanc brings together native Spanish varieties and an international grape to create a wine that is expressive, fresh and true to Clos Montblanc’s philosophy of combining tradition with modernity.

Food & Serving
A versatile white that works well with grilled fish, seafood, light poultry dishes, rice dishes, fresh salads and soft cheeses. Serve chilled at around 8–10°C to highlight its freshness and aromatic lift. Decanting is not necessary; this wine is best enjoyed straight from the bottle while young and vibrant.

Producer
Clos Montblanc was founded in 1988 by the Carbonell Figueras family and takes its name from the historic fortified town of Montblanc nearby. Led by winemaker Josep Valdrí, the estate has become one of the best-known names in DO Conca de Barberà, producing wines and Cavas that showcase both local varieties such as Trepat and Ull de Llebre and more international grapes. Its success lies in balancing regional character with a broad, accessible portfolio.
