Description
100% Monastrell from estate grapes grown organically (with some biodynamic techniques) in Villena, Alicante on sandy-saline soils. Hand harvested followed by a strict selection process. The grapes are then cold soaked for 3 days. 1/3 of the grapes go through whole-cluster carbonic maceration and fermentation, with native yeasts. The rest is macerated and spontaneously fermented with skins and seeds for 7 days. Bottled unfined, unfiltered, and zero SO2.
Dark cherry red in color with some violet hues. Forest fruits on the nose such as blackberries and strawberries with some hints of eucalyptus and liquorice. Smooth on the palate with sweet, mature tannins. Balanced acidity and freshness make this an enjoyable easy drinking style.
