This is a rather special Spanish white wine coming from the northernmost area of DO Empordà, right on the Catalan-French border.
A varietal White Grenache, Blanc dels Aspres is sourced from a single vineyard, Finca Les Corts, with very poor soils composed of granite and slate. Planted with over 40-year-old vines, the plot is constantly swept by a harsh northern wind, called Tramuntana, which concentrates the flavours through a slow dessication of the grapes. The wind also operates as a natural sanitizing agent.
Produced by Vinyes dels Aspres, after the harvest the grapes were destemmed and crushed. Then, only the free-run juice of this white wine from L’Empordà was fermented in Allier oak barrels and a 20 hl oak vat.
After that, Blanc dels Aspres 2022 was aged for 5 months on its lees, with pump-overs performed every 15 days.
Distinctively elegant and characteristic, this white wine fermented and aged in oak will pair very well with roasting recipes, oily fish recipes and semi-hard and cured cheeses.
