This elegant red wine is made from 100% Garnacha Negra grapes, grown in the Finca Furot vineyard in Vilamaniscle, located in the Empordà region of Catalonia. The vineyard sits at approximately 200 meters above sea level, with slate soils and a north-west orientation, benefiting from the Tramuntana wind that contributes to the grapes' freshness and complexity.


Harvest at the optimum ripening point looking for a great aromatic and structural load. Alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tank with periodic rises. Malolactic fermentation of 75% of the wine in egg-shaped amphorae and the rest in new medium-toasted French oak barrels. Subsequent aging with lees with periodic battonage for six months, followed by aging without battonage for another six months. Finally, the blend is grouped in a stainless steel tank where it is lightly clarified, stabilized and filtered.
