The very balsamic and waxy white 2023 Porrera Vi de Vila Blanco now mentions on the label the places from which the grapes are sourced, the lieux-dits (or parajes) of La Coma d’en Romeu, Mas d’en Perí and La Sentiu, all in the village of Porrera and all planted with young vines on slopes at 400 to 550 meters above sea level. It’s pure Garnacha Blanca with varietal typicity, good ripeness and 14.5% alcohol; so, it’s not a shy white. After 72 hours of maceration, it fermented with the skins in stainless steel for 25 days, with daily bâtonnage. It matured in 2,000-liter oak foudres for five months. It has a golden color and a ripe nose with notes of ripe apples, some spice and herbs. It’s round and juicy, with herbal and balsamic flavors and a dry finish. 10,500 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2024.
Grenache Blanc is a white grape varietal primarily grown in Southern France and Spain. Known for its full-bodied wines, Grenache Blanc offers flavors of green apple, pear, and citrus, often accompanied by herbaceous and floral notes. It thrives in warm, dry climates and is typically blended with other varietals like Roussanne and Marsanne to add freshness and acidity. The wines can range from crisp and zesty to rich and oily, depending on the winemaking style. Grenache Blanc's versatility allows it to pair well with a variety of dishes, including grilled fish, poultry, and Mediterranean cuisine. Despite its lower profile compared to its red counterpart, Grenache Blanc is valued for its ability to produce complex and well-balanced wines.
Country
Spain
Ever since the Phoenicians and Romans brought their knowledge of vine cultivation to Spanish soils, the country's culture has grown alongside wine production, with wine being a vital part of Spanish identity and Spanish traditions. Each region of Spain has a wine quite distinct from the others, and it is produced by smallholders and families as much as it is by large companies and established wineries. From the relatively mild and lush regions of La Rioja to the arid plateaus that surround Madrid, grapes are grown in abundance for the now booming Spanish wine industry, and new laws and regulations have recently been put in place to keep the country's standards high. By combining traditional practices with modern technology, Spanish wineries are continuing to produce distinctive wines of great character, flavor and aroma, with the focus shifting in recent decades to quality over quantity.
Region
Cataluna
The beautiful Spanish wine region of Catalunya has a history of viticulture which stretches back for over a thousand years, and has been influenced by a wide range of people who moved through the region, and brought their wine making skills and expertise with them. The region itself is a sizeable one, covering an area of sixty thousand hectares, and within this space there resides over two hundred individual wineries, ranging from small, independent and traditional ones to the larger, mass production bodegas known around the world. The terroir of Catalunya is varied, and ranges from being dry and arid, to more lush and green in the wetter parts of the region which are closer to the coast. This variation in terroir results in a fantastic range of grape varietals being grown, and a wide range of wine styles are produced within Catalunya.
