Oriol Artigas Peca Blanch 2015

Country: Spain

Region: Catalonia

Grape: Pansa Blanca/Pansa Rosada

Peça d’en Blanch Blanc is a rare, old-vine white blend of Pansa Blanca and Pansa Rosada from a single vineyard with southeast exposition, located 1km from the Mediterranean Sea. The organic wine is fermented with wild yeasts in stainless steel vat with 2 days of skin maceration, then raised on fine lees in old barrels for 10 months before being bottled without fining or filtration.

This is a profoundly concentrated wine, with an intensely marine personality, rich yet delicate texture, and laser-like acid spine. One of the great white wines of Catalonia, which Oriol says should be paired with the finest ocean creatures available.
