The arrival of astrological spring brings with it the new 2025 vintage of Gregal d’Espiells, a DO Penedès white that captures, with precision and sensitivity, the freshest and most luminous essence of the Mediterranean.
Mediterranean Origin
Inspired by the northeast wind that caresses and refreshes the vineyards of Espiells, this wine reveals a fragrant and honest profile, of pure, unadorned clarity. It is born from the harmony between two varieties, Moscatel of Alexandria and Gewürztraminer, cultivated in estate-owned vineyards: Espiells, at 200 meters above calcareous-limestone soils, and Can Soler, between 600 and 700 meters, with clay-loam soils that add nuance and complexity.
Conscious Viticulture
The organic vineyard, integrated into an environment of forests and margins that promote biodiversity, is managed under regenerative and precision viticulture principles. Low yields, manual harvesting, and meticulous monitoring of ripening by parcel ensure that each grape reaches the winery in optimal condition.
Precise Winemaking
The vinification aims to preserve the purest expression of the fruit. A cold pre-fermentation maceration in an inert atmosphere precedes the fermentation of the free-run must at low temperature in stainless steel. The process is completed with a two-month aging on lees, which adds texture and balance without compromising freshness.
Tasting Profile
In the glass, Gregal d’Espiells 2025 shows a straw yellow color, bright and clear. On the nose, it is intensely expressive, with a pronounced floral character highlighting rose petals, accompanied by exotic notes of lychee and subtle hints of orange blossom. A background of Mediterranean herbs and citrus nuances adds complexity and vibrancy.
On the palate, it is silky and balanced, with refreshing acidity. The Gewürztraminer contributes its distinctive aromatic character, while the slightly predominant Moscatel adds volume and a clearly Mediterranean expression. The finish is long, harmonious, and persistent, with an elegant floral aftertaste.
Vintage 2025
The 2025 vintage has been particularly outstanding in Penedès. A spring with well-distributed rainfall promoted vegetative growth, followed by a warm summer that advanced ripening. The excellent sanitary condition of the vineyard and careful canopy management allowed for healthy, balanced grapes with intense aromatic expression, essential for varieties that reach their peak aromatic expression on the nose.
A vintage that invites you to toast the change of season with freshness, character, and authenticity. Purchase your Gregal d’Espiells at www.shop.juveycamps.com and we’ll deliver it to your home.
