Equilibri
This is a balancing wine. It is only made in specific vintages. Those that have the virtue of providing a grape with sugar and a good level of acidity. It is a unique wine that comes from a very old vineyard of 1 hectare of plant surface on the mountain of Sant Jaume in Pacs del Penedès.
The label is a reproduction of the work “The Tightrope Walk Apprentice”, a painting on canvas by the painter Juan Carlos Civit.

Tasting note
Medium intensity aroma, clean, concentrated and complex. Aromas of ripe, candied fruit predominate, with hints of quince and apricot jam that give way to slight citrus notes, pleasant spicy aromas, toasted and smoky notes. In the mouth it has a volume on the palate. It is a full-bodied, unctuous white wine that surprises with its fantastic acidity. Long and very persistent.
