Herencia Altes, Garnatxa Blanco 2024

Pale straw with green glints, this Garnatxa Blanca opens with fresh aromas of pear, white peach, and lemon zest, lifted by notes of fennel and Mediterranean herbs. The palate is bright and expressive, combining juicy orchard and citrus fruit with a fine mineral thread. Crisp acidity gives structure, while a subtle textural weight from lees ageing rounds the wine out, leading to a clean, persistent finish.

Herència Altés is a family-run estate in D.O. Terra Alta, Catalonia, an area renowned for its old-vine white Grenache and one of the most expensive wine regions of Catalonia, though not that well known...yet! The winery is fully certified organic, with a focus on sustainability and biodiversity in the vineyards. Using a mix of traditional and modern techniques, Núria Altés and her team craft wines that highlight the purity and authenticity of the local terroir. The 2024 Garnatxa Blanca captures the freshness and aromatic lift of this high-altitude region, offering both immediate appeal and a true reflection of Terra Alta’s signature white grape.
