100% Garnacha red wine, with grapes meticulously hand-selected cluster by cluster. After destemming, the win ferments in contact with the grape skins, which are gently stirred within 700-liter barrels using manual punch-downs.

Throughout the process, alcoholic fermentation occurs at an averag temperature of 22ºC. Once fermentation is complete, the wine remains in contact with the skins for an additional 7 days, carefully preserving and enhancing the grape’s fruity expression with daily punch-downs.

Following this initial stage, the wine is transferred to 50-liter French oak casks, where malolactic fermentation takes place. The wine then continues its aging process for 16 months in casks and barrels of 500 and 224 liters. This aging process achieves a perfect balance in the wine’s interaction with the oak, respecting the delicate red fruit character of these remarkable old vines. Its time in the casks imparts richness and volume on the palate while preserving the vibrant freshness on the nose that is characteristic of the Garnacha variety.

Appearance- Intense and bright ruby red.

Nose- Intense, with a surprising balance of red tart fruits, wild black fruits, and herbal notes of Mediterranean underbrush such as thyme and lavender, all complemented by a subtle hint of pencil lead in the background.

Mounth- Elegant and flavorful, with a delicate and long finish. It has a vertical conclusion, well-supported by its acidity and alcohol, which highlight the typicity of the Garnacha variety, leaving no one indifferent.
