EQ 2023 "Equalizer" - Music in a Glass
The EQ 2023 "Equalizer" embodies the musical philosophy of RPM Wines & Spirits in every drop.
This harmonious cuvée of Loureiro and Arinto grapes from the Amarante sub-region of the Vinho Verde region combines precisely balanced elements to create a fascinating composition.
Rooted in granite-rich soils, the grapes are carefully hand-picked and traditionally stomped by foot. They then go their separate ways: The Arinto matures on the lees in concrete tanks, while the Loureiro develops its aromas in stainless steel tanks. Only before bottling are these two soloists combined into a perfect unity – like a precisely tuned equalizer.
A finely balanced spectrum of aromas unfolds in the glass: wildflowers and fresh citrus notes float above a striking mineral base. On the palate, the wine delights with crisp vibrancy and a crystal-clear acidity structure, culminating in a long, stimulating finish.
This natural wine, bottled without stabilization or filtration, reflects the philosophy of RPM—named after the founders' initials, but also a nod to "Revolutions Per Minute." The limited-edition "Equalizer" pairs perfectly with sushi, air-dried ham, and Asian dishes, as well as seafood and summer salads.
A wine that, like a perfectly composed melody, appeals to all the senses and takes the connoisseur on a journey through the soundscape of the Vinho Verde region.
The wine names of RPM Wines & Spirits—Analogue, Looper, Equalizer, Reverb, and Overdub—form a fascinating connection between the winery and the world of music. These names are all terms from audio and music production and reflect a well-thought-out philosophy.
The winery's name itself—RPM, an acronym for founders Ricardo Moreira, José Roseira, and Daniel Pires—creates a clever ambiguity, as RPM in music stands for "Revolutions Per Minute," the rotational speed of records. This musical connection is consistently continued in the wine names.
The wines represent different aspects of sound processing.
