Built as the historic “first wine” of the house’s Origen range, it channels the estate’s minimal-intervention, organically farmed identity into a light, vivid white meant to be poured generously. In a year when the DO Penedès reported lower yields but notably high grape quality, the winery’s focus on freshness and clarity reads as both intentional and timeless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWine Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e White blend\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal Composition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Parellada 47%, Macabeo 31%, Xarel·lo 22%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSugar Content:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.3 g\/L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertifications:\u003c\/strong\u003e Organic certification (CCPAE), Demeter certified biodynamic operator\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSensory Description:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAromatic and clean-lined, this 2024 leans into white flowers first, orange blossom, acacia, and a faint jasmine-like lift, then opens to ripe pear, green apple, and lemon zest. On the palate, it stays light and precise, with brisk acidity carrying citrus and orchard fruit through a gently saline, mineral-tinged finish. Parellada’s airy florality keeps the profile bright, Macabeo adds soft fruit breadth, and Xarel·lo firms the spine with subtle phenolic grip and structure, a classic Penedès expression tuned for freshness rather than weight. The vintage context matters here, with high-quality fruit despite reduced volume; the wine’s clarity and tension feel especially intentional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer’s Background:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParés Baltà is a family estate whose modern leadership sits with the third generation, Joan and Josep Cusiné, alongside winemakers Marta Casas and María Elena Jiménez, who have shaped the cellar style for decades with an emphasis on purity, restraint, and terroir expression.
