Colour

Clean, clear and bright. Garnet color with ruby reflections. Medium layer intensity. Very nice to look at.

AROMA:

First contact where a delicate aromatic harmony permeates you. The spicy notes (peppercorns) stand out, together with the minerals, thus highlighting the characteristic touches of the wet stone. Fragrance and personality in its maximum state.

TASTE:

Vibrant mouthfeel. Its route is fresh, thanks to its marked acidity. It is necessary to emphasize, tremendously elegant tannins and until they will be developed to a subtly savory end and with a marked mineral character. An extraordinary climb.

Ideal with a good rabbit and artichoke rice, or magret with trumpets of death, escalivada cake with goat cheese au gratin, cake with Iberian ham, and can go very well with an assortment of semi-cured cheeses with jam.

With this wine we wanted to recover an ancestral production heritage that takes us to the first wine elaborations in which the entire bunch was used. We have investigated how those bottles made with this system last and are maintained over time with all the virtues of a live and fresh wine.
It was harvested during the third week of October in small boxes, the wine fermented with 100% of the rasp. Fermented in small cement tanks, imitating the temperature peaks typical of the fermentations of the last century, without added yeasts. Subsequent aging of 14 months in 600-liter barrels with more than one use.
