Sistema Vinari is a project of Eloi Cedo, from Mallorca (also known for 4 Kilos wines). 65% Callet and 20% Manto Negro, co-fermented and macerated for about 3 weeks in stainless steel, blended with carbonically macerated Monastrell. The grapes are sourced from two villages. He doesn't destem the grapes because the machine broke. The wine is aged 7 months in 4 yr old 500L barrels, then 3 months in stainless steel before bottling. Fascinating and delicious, with crunchy, crushed wild berries and Mediterranean herbs.
These wines always have us dying to travel to Mallorca. Eloi is responsible for recovering the native grapes of the island.
