Partida Creus VY 2020 is a natural white wine from Catalonia, Spain. This wine is made from a blend of two indigenous grape varieties, Macabeu and Xarel·lo, sourced from organic vineyards located in the Baix Penedès region.
The wine is fermented spontaneously with native yeasts and aged in old chestnut barrels for a few months before bottling. This minimal intervention approach highlights the natural expression of the grapes and the terroir, resulting in a unique and complex wine.
Partida Creus is a small-scale winery run by a couple, Massimo Marchiori and Antonella Gerosa, who have a passion for working with forgotten grape varieties and traditional winemaking methods. They practice biodynamic viticulture and aim to produce wines that are reflective of their unique terroir.
VY 2020 offers a fresh and aromatic nose with notes of lemon, green apple, and white flowers. On the palate, it is crisp and refreshing, with flavors of citrus, stone fruits, and a mineral finish. This wine is a great example of the natural and terroir-driven approach of Partida Creus, and it has received high praise from wine critics for its quality and uniqueness
