Ekam Essència 2020 is a sweet wine that captivates with its balance and complexity. As one brings the glass closer to the nose, a bouquet of ripe fruits such as peach and apricot unfurls, interwoven with citrus notes and a subtle presence of mineral and hydrocarbon aromas. On the palate, its sweetness is far from overwhelming, offering an elegant and silky texture with a lingering finish that beckons another sip. This wine is a judicious choice for those seeking sweetness without excess and a rich and varied aromatic expression.

Characteristics Ekam Essència

Ekam Essència is a white wine produced by the Castell d’Encús en the Costers del Segre region, a winery located in the catalán pyrenees at around 1,000 metres above sea level, which makes it the winery that produces wines at the highest altitudes in Spain. Its director, Raul Bobet, is known to produce another fashionable wine in Priorat region, Ferrer Bobet.

Ekam Essència is made using Riesling (100%) grapes. Noble rot grapes are used in the production of the wine.These grapes are infected with Botrytis, a fungus that attacks grapes removing water and leaving a high percentage of sugar, fruit acids and minerals.

The harvest is carried out manually in small boxes with a 10kg capacity, then vinification is carried out in 6hl vats at a low temperature.

Ekam Essència is then aged for 36 months in the bottle before being put on the market. With a  limited production of 3,000 bottles being made, this is a special wine made in the style of German Rieslings.

Others wines Castell d'Encús

It is located in the Pyrenees area of Pallars Jussà (Lleida) in a mountainous area at an altitude of 800 to 1000 meters. The orientation is primarily SO with good protection from the cold north winds. The intention of the winery is producing a limited number of bottles from the whole fruit of their vines.
