Sumoll

Sumoll is a rare and distinctive red grape variety native to Catalonia in northeast Spain, historically grown in the Penedes region but largely abandoned for much of the 20th century in favour of higher-yielding varieties. In recent years, a small number of dedicated producers have revived Sumoll, recognising its potential for producing light-coloured, high-acid red wines with low alcohol, delicate red fruit flavours such as redcurrant and cranberry, and floral, herbal undertones. Sumoll is also used to make fresh, pale rose wines that showcase its bright acidity and elegant, almost ethereal character. Its light body and refreshing style set it apart from many of Spain's typically bold, full-bodied reds, making it an interesting choice for those seeking something different. Sumoll pairs well with charcuterie, grilled vegetables, light tapas and fish dishes. At Wines Direct, we offer a selection of Sumoll wines from Catalonia.
