THURSDAY NIGHT TASTING 6-8PM!!!!  SUCCÉS VINÍCOLA!!!

Winemakers at the Lions Club:  Catalunya’s Succés Vinícola  

Young Spanish winemakers behind the bar tonight! Mariona Vendrell and Albert Canela fell in love studying winemaking in Tarragona and started Succés Vinícola in 2011 at the tender age of 20. They successfully introduced themselves to the world of Spanish wine with a still red wine made with Conca de Barberà’s favorite grape, Trepat. Traditionally, the Trepat grape was used in the region’s rosé cava and first vinified as red wine only a decade ago. The couple use Albert’s family’s wine connections to source Succés’ fruit from older, organically farmed vineyards owned by local abuelos, and they continue to push the boundaries of what’s considered possible in the region with good farming and introspective winemaking. Please come join us to taste through these exuberant wines!

Let there be WINE, BREAD, CHEESE, and VINYL!

Succés Vinícola, Conca de Barberà Parellada Experiència 2018

40-60 year-old bush trained Parellada grown in calcareous clay at between 500 and 700 meters above sea level. Traditionally one of the main grapes for Cava, Parellada is a late ripening variety that likes these high altitudes. Success Vinicola is amongst the first producers to make a still Parellada and is arguably the benchmark producer for the grape. Experiencia sees 12 hours of skin-contact. Fresh, lively, and bright - you can taste the salt from the calcium in the the clay. Organic and natural. $25  

Succés Vinícola, Trepat Rosado Patxanga 2018

Patxanga means “party” in Catalan! Everybody’s going to want to take this one home. 100% Trepat sourced from 40 year-old bush-trained vines grown calcareous clay @ 400-500 m. Hand-picked, spontaneous fermentation and aged in steel with minimal sulfites added. Exceedingly fresh with some herbaceous notes alongside the red fruit. The label and the wine scream "SUMMER!" Organic and natural. $22

Succés Vinícola, La Cuca de Llum Trepat 2017

And Cuca de Lum means “Firefly” in Catalan! This is from 30-55 year-old bush-trained Trepat (native to Conca de Barbera) grown in calcareous clay at around 500 meters. A large, thin-skinned grape similar to Poulsard or Schiava, Trepat produces light-bodied, aromatic reds reminiscent of those from the Jura. There’s Meyer lemon and orange peel here in amongst the fresh strawberry and pomegranate notes. Hard to stop drinking this one. Organic and natural. $25

Succés Vinícola, Conca de Barberà Trepat El Mentider Old Vine 2016

100% Trepat from bush-trained vines between 80 and 120 years old! (That’s crazy for Trepat!) Also grown in the same clay around 500 meters, these precious grapes are handpicked. The wine is macerated for about 45 days and aged in Burgundy barrels. The resulting wine is richer than most Trepat, with a satisfying earthy depth to it. Mentider means liar in Catalan, as this wine plays devil’s advocate to most Trepat. A real treat for lovers of complex, but lighter reds. Organic and natural. $40
