This facilitates the maturation of the fruit and brings fineness to the wines. The low power of water retention is compensated by the local microclimate.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Two distinct microclimates<\/h2>\n<p>In the D.O. two geographical and climatic zones are distinguished:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>The area of the Maresme<\/b>, located in the foothills of the Litoral mountain range, of maritime orientation and open to the influence of the sun and the Mediterranean breeze. The mountain protects from the cold winds and condenses the moisture that comes from the sea, provoking a typically Mediterranean microclimate with warm, dry summers and mild winters. The vineyards are distributed in staggered plots ranging from 90 m to 260 m in altitude. The wines of this area are mild, with a low alcohol content and moderate acidity.<\/li>\n<li><b>The area of the Eastern Vall\u00e9s<\/b> is located in the interior slopes of the mountain range, with a more somber orientation and a more continental microclimate. The wines are more acidic and powerful.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Pansa Blanca, the most representative grape<\/h2>\n<p>The most characteristic grape variety of the Denomination of Origin Alella is the <b>Pansa Blanca<\/b>, very close, although not identical, to the Xarel.lo (in many literatures they even get confused), that produces some white wines perfumed and shiny.<\/p>\n<p>Although the region produces white wines with Pansa Blanca and Garnacha Blanca as main varieties, other authorized varieties are Picapoll, Malvasia, Parellada, Macabeo, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.invinic.com\/en\/chardonnay-is-a-lot-more-versatile-than-you-think\/\">Chardonnay<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.invinic.com\/en\/3-surprising-facts-about-chenin-blanc\/\">Chenin<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.invinic.com\/en\/sauvignon-blanc-is-it-always-dry\/\">Sauvignon Blanc<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.invinic.com\/en\/an-introduction-to-muscat-wine\/\">Muscat<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For the elaboration of red and ros\u00e9 wines, the main variety is Garnacha Tinta, although other authorized varieties are Hairy Grenache, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.invinic.com\/en\/tempranillo-the-most-famous-grape-of-spain\/\">Tempranillo<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.invinic.com\/en\/cabernet-merlot-the-bordeaux-blend-outside-bordeaux\/\">Merlot<\/a>, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pansa Rosada and Pinot Noir.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most representative wines of the Pansa Blanca from Alella is the:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"http:\/\/www.invinic.com\/raventos-alella-tina-9-2015.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-5795 size-full\" title=\"Ravent\u00f3s d'Alella Tina 9\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.invinic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/raventos-alella-tina-9.jpg\" alt=\"Ravent\u00f3s d'Alella Tina 9\" width=\"130\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a>Ravent\u00f3s de Alella Pansa Blanca Tina 9<\/h2>\n<p>From the selection of the best \u201ctina\u201d (tub 9) of the winery, for the production of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.invinic.com\/en\/raventos-alella-tina-9-2015\"><b>Ravent\u00f3s de Alella Pansa Blanca Tina 9<\/b><\/a>, single varietal of Pansa Blanca, the grape is pressed and macerated in cold to extract to the maximum the aromas.
