Partida Creus is the project of two Italians in Catalonia’s Penedès region, reviving forgotten local varietals like Garrut, Vinyater, Samsó, and Queixal de Llop. They make an impressively dizzying number of different wines, all unified by a distinctive house style. Working organically and naturally, they craft raw, visceral reds and vibrant, expressive whites. As a couple they have an insatiable energy which really comes through in the wine.
