L'Obaga
Vintage: 2021
Type of wine: young red wine
Grape varieties: Garnatxa negra, Syrah
Grenache and Syrah.Origin: Vines of Grenache from 40 years old terraces; and Syrah from 30 years old terraces. All of them collected in parcels from Gratallops, El Lloar, La Vilella Baixa and La Vilella Alta.
Elaboration: Handpicked grapes, fermentation in stainless steel tanks and bottled afterwards.
“Medium intense garnet color. A delicate nose with red cherries and a hint of raspberry. The elegant character of the wine continues to show on the palate with light, fine and only slightly grippy tannins, charming red fruit character with cherries, a bit of pomegranate and rosehip. The 14,5 % alcohol makes the wine smooth, generous and provides some length without being aggressive. Very drinkable and though it will easily keep for a few more years it will not greatly improve anymore.”
