Flavour notes

Ekam Essencia Blanc 2019 shows a pale straw to lightly green-yellow colour in the glass. The aroma is refined and focused, with citrus, grapefruit, peach and apricot alongside mineral notes. With development, fine riesling-like hints of hydrocarbon or kerosene can come through.

On the palate it is fresh, delicate and softly textured. The residual sweetness is firmly supported by high acidity, keeping the wine lively rather than heavy. A distinctive marine, saline note appears on the nose and returns in the finish. The aftertaste is long and persistent.

Product info about Ekam Essencia Blanc 2019

Ekam Essencia Blanc 2019 is a Spanish white wine with a very particular point of view. Made entirely from riesling, it comes from Catalonia's D.O. Costers del Segre, in the Pyrenean area of Pallars Jussà around Talarn in Lleida. The vineyards sit high, between roughly 800 and 1,230 metres, and that altitude matters: the wine depends on natural acidity to carry its gentle sweetness.

Castell d'Encús shapes Ekam Essencia in a lightly sweet to medium-sweet style, described by the producer as reminiscent of kabinett or spätlese. The grapes come from the estate's own vineyards and are hand-harvested in small 10 kg crates. Selected parcels combine high natural acidity with high sugar levels, while only limited botrytis is used so that the clarity of riesling remains central.

For the 2019 vintage, the wine spent 10 months on its lees in tank before bottling. Production was limited to 1,500 bottles. At 10.5% alcohol, with around 30 g/l residual sugar and marked acidity, it is less about simple sweetness than about tension and finesse. At Drankenshop Broekmans, this is the kind of bottle we like to show when someone is open to a Spanish white wine with a more unexpected, mountain-grown character.

Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate awarded the 2019 vintage 93+ points, placing it in the direction of a delicate medium-sweet riesling. It also has a clear gastronomic side: spicy dishes, risotto, fruit desserts, blue cheeses, shellfish such as lobster and scallops, smoked meat, and savoury or salty preparations all make sense with its balance of sweetness and acidity.

About EKAM

Ekam is a Spanish wine brand that is mainly known for its fresh white wines from the Catalonia region. The name Ekam is primarily associated with the winery Castell d'Encus, located in the Pyrenees, in the province of Lleida. In this unique, high-altitude environment at around 800 to 1000 meters above sea level, the grapes benefit from cool nights and large temperature differences, which contribute to their pronounced aromatic character and strong acidity. The Ekam wines are produced in small quantities and are often a blend of Riesling and Albariño, which sets them apart with their mineral freshness, complexity, and lively style. The grapes are hand harvested and in many cases vinified in stainless steel tanks to preserve their fresh character, sometimes combined with traditional techniques characteristic of Castell d'Encus. The result is wines with a distinctly individual profile, that fit well with modern gastronomy and appeal to wine lovers who are curious about the potential of high-altitude Spanish viticulture. In this way, Ekam gives a contemporary twist to the classic white wine styles of Spain.
