Profile & Story
Pares Balta is a family estate at Pacs del Penedes with roots back to 1790, certified organic by CCPAE and farmed biodynamically across five properties between 170 and 750 metres of altitude. Blanc de Pacs was the first wine ever made at the winery, produced in the 1980s by Joan Cusine Cusine, and it opened the Origen range that the estate still builds on today. It is a blend of the three traditional Penedes varieties, 47% Parellada, 31% Macabeu and 22% Xarel-lo, hand harvested; after a gentle crushing the varieties ferment separately in stainless steel at 16C for 17, 16 and 10 days respectively, with no barrel ageing. 11.5% alcohol. Suitable for vegans.
Tasting Notes
Lemon yellow colour with bright straw yellow reflections. Very intense, full aroma dominated by ripe white fruits such as pear and apple over a light floral background. Fresh in the mouth and displaying good acidity; its passage is smooth, leaving an intense memory of fruit and a sensation of freshness.
Pairing Recommendation
Pares Balta pairs it with all types of fish and seafood, and with salads and cold dishes, served between 6C and 8C.
