White Grenache

A cooperative of growers who each have their own multi-generation history, Empordàlia has been in production together since 2015. They say they are united by a common purpose: “to work together and produce a quality product that reflects the character of our region.” These winemakers treasure the land and the elements that contribute so richly to their wine. They are nestled among three national parks on the Northeastern edge of Catalonia and pay homage to the Mediterranean seabreeze, alluvial soil, and vibrant sun that impart essential characteristics into their crop of Grenache blanc – a grape that is prone to overproduction and can be underwhelming when not carefully tended and challenged. Their diligent efforts have produced a label that “plays with the waves.” The Mabre has intense floral aromas of white roses, as well as exotic fruit and toasted notes. It is pleasantly full-bodied and ripe with an aromatic finish of sweet mint. Zesty seafood will pair well, but it can support an indulgent pairing like foie gras or pate.
