Why We Love It
We love Salinar because Xarel.lo from a salty site becomes something precise, mineral and deeply expressive.
Description
Salinar is a single-plot Xarel.lo from Vinyes Singulars, grown on a site connected to an underground salt deposit. The wine is pure, mineral and highly expressive, with citrus, stone fruit and a saline line that gives both freshness and depth. It is one of the clearest examples of the family's connection to the land.

About the Producer
Vinyes Singulars is rooted in an extraordinary family history: twenty-three generations of winemaking and more than 600 years of connection to the land in Penedès. This is not a project built around trends, but a continuation of deep local knowledge and a powerful relationship with place. The wines are alive, expressive and unmistakably Mediterranean, showing the energy of local varieties such as Xarel.lo, Macabeu and Sumoll through a contemporary natural wine lens.

Our Take
A mineral Xarel.lo that tastes like the ocean: salty, focused and quietly powerful.
