La Vilella Baixa
Vintage: 2018
Type of wine: Oak aged red wine - Vi de Vila
Grape varieties: Carinyena
Old vineyards with low production and high quality "costers" of Riuet, La Vinya and El Solà, belonging to the Vila of La Vilella Baixa.
Elaboration: Handpicked grapes, fermentation in stainless steel tanks, and aging in new French oak barrels for 12 months. Long aging in bottle.
“This 100% Cariñena is deep colored and has a youthful smell of fresh black fruits like blueberries and cherries, combined with fine cedar notes of new oak. Lively and almost refreshing because of its saline character, it cleans the mouth with perfectly dosed tannins, all combining wonderfully with its fresh fruit character. Black chocolate, prune, pepper, cedar and tobacco leaves, forest floor, camphor.”
