Penedès, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainThe natural wines sector suffered from the same disease early organic wines did, namely dirty, defective wines. It is not the case at Parés Baltà, where wine growing and winemaking are meticulous. Materia Prima or prime material goes into this wine that is co-fermented naturally with xarel.lo must and skins from 40 year old vines, along with 10% of gewürztraminer skins in stainless steel for 30 days. The nose is spectacular, pitching spicy tangerine and apricot that fade into stony, mineral, citrus, and apricot. Food matching is easy, from deep fried bites to spicy sushi rolls.Tasted: 26 March 2025Tasted by: Prices:

Penedès, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainThis new orange from the venerable biodynamic Penedès Pares Balta family uses xarel.lo must and skins (from 40 year old vines), along with 10% skins from gewürztraminer. It was native fermented in stainless, with 1 month of skin maceration, and it remains in stainless until light filtration and bottling. Lifted and edgy with pithy tangerine and pink grapefruit, this cuts a svelte line through river stones, apricot, and peach fuzz, finishing with a limey twist. One to think of with fried bites / calamari.Tasted: 09 April 2024Tasted by: Prices:
