Product description
Old Grenache & Carignan vines, ranging from 50 to 70 years old, along with 15-year-old Syrah vines from the vineyards of Capçanes, Marçà, and Falset in Montsant DO. Hand-harvested. Grapes are destemmed and transferred to large cement tanks for fermentation with indigenous yeast. Then, grapes are pressed
and transferred; half of it to the same tanks and the other half to Austrian oak foudres of 2,000/2,500l, to age for 10 months.
Aromas of red fruits, ripe raspberries, red cherries, blueberries with a subtle stony undertone complemented by dried herbs and chocolate powder. Silky, rich, complex with a lingering fresh finish.
Witness the beauty of Garnacha fruit in a very young and fresh style. It's not made to last but gives lots of enjoyment now. Red cherries and berries, floral notes, a touch of caramel – great pleasure on the nose. On the palate, it is suave, round and quite velvety. Just pleasure, with no further complications. Lovely, but drink it as soon as possible; there is nothing in this wine that will improve that lovely fruit.
