Pepe Fuster makes wine from his 26 hectare vineyard in Terra Alta which is near Tarragona in southern Catalonia. Pepe's vineyard is officially certified organic.

Catalan Eagle white is 70% Garnacha Blanca, 20% Viognier and 10% Roussanne. The two latter grape varieties originally coming from the Rhone.

Cool fermented in stainless steel, the result is an aromatic, peachy white wine with refreshing acidity and a rich texture. The wine is perfect now and will also age well for at least 2 years.
