60% Monastrell, 40% Tempranillo

These Monastrell and Tempranillo grapes come from the shadow blocks of our Finca Antolí, in the mountains of Enguera. The deep, frankclay soils (red clay), rich in organic matter, form the terroir of this unique vineyard. The yield was high, 5kg/vine.

Just before finish fermentation, grapes are press off, and the wine finishes the process in absence of the skins. After malolactic fermentation, the wine rests for 9 months in American and French oak barrels. 14,0% Vol., pH 3,5, TA 4,1g/L.

Beautiful dark red color. Medium-high aromatic intensity. Great complexity in nouse. We predominantly find fresh fruit aromas, blackberry, redcurrant. Spiced and oaky aromas are also present. It easy comes up aromas of pepper, vanilla, licorice.

In the palate, is a soft, elegant, easy-drinking Crianza with a great structure and perfect balance. The finish is medium-plus long. The wine has a lot of minerality and represents very well the terroir of the mountains of Enguera.

The wine will evolve very well in the bottle. Tannin will gradually soften, increasing full-bodied feeling.

The aromatic complexity will also increase, developing a wide variety of ripe fruity aromas.

Consume preferably between 2020 and 2022.
