Vinos Finca Espiells DO Penedès en mesa exterior

With longer days and mild temperatures, the perfect time arrives to enjoy your gastronomic moment alongside a single-varietal wine. From the aromatic elegance of Mediterranean whites from the D.O. Penedès to the structured liveliness of a high-altitude red from the D.O. Ribera del Duero, these labels are ideal companions for taking you on a picnic in the countryside, the park, or the beach.

What is a single-varietal wine?

A single-varietal wine is primarily made from one grape variety to highlight its aromas, flavors, and texture. It allows you to appreciate the grape’s typical characteristics without blends, clearly showing traits such as the freshness of a Chardonnay or the red fruit of a Tempranillo.

Spring wines and pairings

Vino blanco DO Penedès Miranda d'Espiells

Miranda d’Espiells is a Chardonnay white that reveals aromas of pineapple, melon, and fresh apple, with a vibrant profile and balanced texture. Its freshness and structure make it ideal for:

Citrus and avocado salad with fresh cheese and nuts

Sea bass tartare with herbs and lemon

Pasta primavera with peas, asparagus, and Parmesan

Key note: the combination of fresh fruit and delicate acidity enhances light flavors and further lightens spring dishes.

Vino blanco DO Penedès Viver d'Espiells

Viver d’Espiells is a choice of the traditional Malvasía de Sitges variety, offering Mediterranean herbal notes, mandarin, grapefruit, and white flowers. Its lively acidity and volume make this wine a great contrast to more intense seasonal flavors:

Strawberry and basil gazpacho

Scallop ceviche with pink grapefruit

Ricotta and fresh herb skewers

Key note: its aromatic and fresh profile makes it a versatile white that pairs well with both light starters and seafood dishes.

Vino blanco DO Penedès Can Rius d'Espiells

Can Rius d’Espiells is an intense and expressive Xarel·lo that combines ripe fruit, Mediterranean herbs, and soft toasted notes from its aging. Supported by freshness and depth:

Grilled vegetables with herb pesto

Semi-cured cheeses with honey and almonds

Lemon chicken with thyme and rosemary

Key note: this wine has enough weight and structure to accompany slightly denser dishes without losing its springtime balance.

Vino tinto Ribera del Duero Pagos de Anguix 822

The Tempranillo single-varietal from Ribera del Duero, 822, comes from a vineyard over 800 m above sea level, giving it fresh and vibrant acidity combined with intense red fruit and fine tannins. Perfect for:

Lamb casseroles with mint and rosemary

Light tomato, burrata, and basil pizza

Grilled eggplant with goat cheese

Its juicy and persistent profile pairs surprisingly well with heartier spring dishes.
