Partida Creus "SP" 2022
SP is a perfectly cozy and autumnal wine of the varietal subirat parent , also known as malvasía fenicia. A distinctively wooly and nutty bouquet opens into a soft, lightly textured and finely meshed palate of mineral, peach, and apple. With a bit of air, nuances of lanolin, aloe, bergamot, white tea, and grilled pineapple emerge. There’s a wealth of comfort and chewy satisfaction to this compact, relatively low alcohol gem of a wine. Its distinctly oxidative notes will feel familiar to lovers of Jura whites and sherry drinkers alike, but SP is both more lush and more gentle in its expression than those often more challenging wines. While wonderful on its own, it will compliment many cod dishes, fresh or tinned, milder firm cheeses, or any number of pies or pastries. The wine feels very winter-ready, proving that a winter white needn’t be bold or oaky. Modest, fuzzy, and cozy does the trick!
Practicing organic. 100% subirat parent. 3 days maceration the skins. Native yeasts. Unfined and unfiltered. Zero added sulfites. Massis de Bonastre, Catalonia, Spain.
