Product Information
Enric Soler ‘Espenyalluchs’ 2023 is one of the most precise and age-worthy expressions of Xarel·lo currently produced in Spain. It comes from a single high-altitude vineyard in Alt Penedès, where old vines are farmed organically. This wine sets a standard for exciting Spanish white wines today.
This dry white opens with aromas like citrus peel, crushed herbs, and white flowers. You’ll notice a distinct chalky minerality too. On the palate, it feels tight and textural, with a fresh saline note and vibrant acidity. The finish is long and smoky. It’s fermented and aged in neutral oak and amphora, showing remarkable balance and purity. There’s no heavy oak here, just clean, terroir-driven energy.
Enric Soler is one of Spain’s top white wine producers. He was once Spain’s champion sommelier and founded the Barcelona Wine Academy. Now, he’s famous for small-batch, organic Xarel·lo wines that compete with the best whites from Chablis, Jura, and Etna. Espenyalluchs is his most mineral and structured cuvée. It’s made in very small quantities and is rarely found outside Spain.
If you want fine Spanish white wine, organic Xarel·lo, or an alternative to white Burgundy, this wine is a must-try. With its blend of tension, texture, and elegance, Espenyalluchs 2023 shows the potential of Xarel·lo in skilled hands.
