About this winery
Parés Baltà is a family owned winery in the Penedès region of Spain with traditions dating back to the 18th century. In 1790, the first vines were planted on the estate that now surrounds the winery. Today however, more than 220 years later, almost everything is different. The acquisition of the winery in 1978 by Mr. Joan Cusiné Hill, born in 1917 in Bellvei del Penedés, and the addition of the exemplary estates “La Torreta” and “Els Pujols” mark the beginning of the Parés Baltà...

Production notes
After a light maceration of four hours, the grapes were lightly pressed, and then fermented in new and 2nd year French (Allier) and Hungarian barrels for 18 days at an average temperature of 17ªC. After the fermentation, the ageing was continued in the same barrels for 4 months over the lees and applying periodic battonages.
Tasting notes
Pale yellow colour with light greenish tints. Clear and transparent. Good intensity, with notes of very mature white fruits and floral tones. Soft, with a voluptuous body and a creamy texture coming from the battonage. The fruit predominates again over the wood, leaving a pleasant and balanced finish.
