Penedès, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainLocal meets international in this new organic offering from Segura Viudas. The blend is a mix of indigenous Spanish grapes: 47/32 macabeo/parellada; blended with 21 percent chardonnay. The nose is fresh and bright with a traditional citrus leesy bent. The palate is a combination of green apples, citrus, and sweet pastry. It spends 9-12 months on lees, and it's finished at the off dry level of 9 grams per litre of sugar, giving it more of a quaffable, friendly style.

Penedès, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainA blend of two traditional, indigenous Spanish varieties, 47 percent macabeo and 32 percent parellada, is paired with 21 percent chardonnay. It has quite a bright, lemony nose with just a touch of autolytic character from 9-12 months on the lees. It’s not overly complex, but there’s excellent precision to the fruit. With an off-dry finish (9 g/L residual sugar), it makes for a fresh, approachable style that could start as an aperitif and then quickly transition to the first course.Tasted: 19 August 2020Tasted by: Prices:
