Xarel.lo is

a) a varietal grown in Spain, typically blended into Cava
b) a famous winemaker from Istanbul
c) an emerging wine area in Argentina
d) a varietal grown in Spain, typically blended into Sherry

And the answer is:
a) a varietal grown in Spain, typically blended into Cava

Xarel.lo (pronounced char-rel lo) is typically blended with Parellada and Macabeau to make Spain’s unique sparkling Cava. Wine Unleashed is proud to present this hard-to-find bottling of Xarel.lo unblended and still. This is a red alert for the Wine Geek looking to taste something unique. This prolific varietal creates a wine that has some body with great acidity. There is richness, minerality, and pear notes, which are all balanced with the acidity. Pair this with some seafood and you will have a stunning pairing.
