BN Blanco Natural 2020 - Partida Creus

BN Blanco Natural - Partida Creus

BN (Blanco Natural) is 90% of Macabeo and the remaining part of Cartoixa (aka Xarello) Vermell, a vibrant pink mutation of Xarello, which gives a bronze tone to this exotic white wine. On the nose the aromas are a swirl of fruit and orange blossom with spices. At the sip it is crunchy, well balanced with a delicate acidity, and flavors of apricot and red apple. The BN is a perfect aperitif and shines when paired with vegetables, soups and salads.

Service

We taste the Blanco Natural at a temperature of 8/10 ° in a tulip glass. Wine to drink immediately but can give fantastic emotions if stored for a few years.

Pairing

To combine with a risotto with porcini mushrooms, some sushi, a delal mixed paella, to try with a tuna tuna with sesame and soy sauce.

Cellar: Pardida Creus

Partida Creus is a small family run business located in Bonastre, near Tarragona, in the denomination of Penedes. Behind Partida Creus we find Antonella Gerosa and Massimo Marchiori who in 2001 decided to leave Italy and move to Spain with the intention of making sustainable and quality viticulture with native Catalan grapes. Antonella and Massimo have in particular recovered and valorised two typical varieties that were in danger of disappearing: the garrut and the sumoll, but in the rows we also find other varieties such as the gra gros, the largat, the petit, the xarel-lo, the vermell cartoixa , the viñater, the bobal, and the macabeu. In vineyards they avoid invasive mechanical work, and together with the absence of chemical treatments, emphasizing the biodynamic cycles and the lunar phases, they manage to have a very limited production of excellent quality grapes. The same philosophy is applied in the cellar where wines of maximum integrity are produced, without added sulphites, unfiltered and uncleared. 27,000 bottles produced, divided into ancestral and still wines.
