Tasting notes
Bright cherry color.
Cherry aromas and red liquorice on a fresh and
mentholated balsamic with a cocoa bean and
toasted background.
On the palate is intense, unctuous, greedy
and fruity with a silky tannin, fresh and long
finish.
Grape Varieties:
Carignan Grenache (45%), Carignan (35%),
Syrah (20%)
Soils:
Sandy-granitic soil (Gresa) (elegance):
Grenache, Syrah and Cabernet
Sauvignon, lyre trellis to improve
cluster and leaf sun exposure, to
obtain maximum photosynthetic
function and, therefore, a complete
ripening of the grape.
Slaty soil (mineral): Old selected
Carignan vines with low yields, about
1 kg/grapevine.
Viticulture:
We practice an ecological viticulture
under the principles of biodynamics,
through a rigorous manual work in
the vineyard and focusing our efforts
on recover the autochthonous varieties
Harvest & Vinification:
Hand picking harvest in crates of 10
Kg, carrying out a first selection in the
vineyard and a second sorting berry
by berry in the cellar.
Cold soak (4ºC) and alcoholic
fermentation (controlled temperature
over 26ºC) in small and wide
stainless steal and oak vats. Long
maceration and pressing at very
low pressure. Ageing process in
French oak barrels, takes 15 months,
combining fine and extra fine grain
to obtain more complexity.
Bottled in July 2017 without fining or
filtering.
