Tasting notes

Imputat is the first red wine from Bodega Clandestina, intended to show pride in the Mediterranean terroir and its ability to produce bright, light, and energetic wines. The winemaker notes that Sumoll is not just a rustic grape with high acidity and hard tannins, and that vinified this way it expresses aromatics, texture, and freshness.

Important Compliance Requirements

FedEx and other carriers we might occasionally use can only deliver wine to customers who are 21 years or older. Someone must be at the address to receive the package, carriers don't just drop a package and leave. They must ensure the person receiving the wine is 21 or older.


Re-shipping a Package

If a package is returned to us after three failed delivery attempts, we can only re-ship the wine upon payment of a re-shipping fee, to be determined based on the shipping address and number of bottles. Shipping wine is extremely expensive. We are sorry about this, but we have no other choice. Please make sure there's always someone at the address you enter as your shipping address.

If you'd like to receive a refund for a package that was returned to us after FedEx made three delivery attempts, we can do that but we must keep a $20 refund fee; FedEx charges us a lot of money for returns, unfortunately, I can't stress this enough.

Producer profile

Bodega Clandestina

Ferran Lacruz farms 8 hectares of vines in Sant Martí Sarroca, in the heart of the Penedès wine region in Catalonia. He launched Bodega Clandestina with his first vintage in 2018, at age 24. His stated aim is to show what Xarel-lo has to offer beyond its common use as a mass-production grape for bulk cava.

Ferran works completely outside of any appellation and farms the grapes organically. He hand-harvests all grapes and does not fine or filter his wines, working without additives.

In the cellar, Ferran primarily uses demijohns and amphorae. For Imputat, grapes are 98% de-stemmed and macerated for 4 days in stainless steel tank with punch-downs and pump-overs 3 to 4 times per day, fermented with native yeasts and bottled without filtration and with little to no added sulfur.
