- A spicy, punchy and moreish red with attractive floral aromas, vibrant fruit compote and vanilla notes in the background, full-flavoured and juicy. A juicy, punchy, and opulent red with attractive floral aromas, ripe fruit, and balsamic notes in the background. Balanced freshness on the palate lifts the vibrant fruit to a smooth and persistent finish.
The grapes were carefully selected from the best plots. Fermentation and maceration took place with skin contact in stainless steel tanks and lasted 15 to 25 days. The temperatures were carefully monitored to ensure they did not exceed 24 to 26°C. The wine was then aged in American oak barrels for a period of three months before release.
This juicy, punchy, and opulent red has attractive floral aromas, ripe fruit, and balsamic notes in the background. Balanced freshness on the palate lifts the vibrant fruit to a smooth and persistent finish.
The wines from the 2022 vintage are excellent in quality. The grapes were in perfectly healthy condition at harvest time, having reached very good maturity levels. The 2022 vintage produces fresh, vibrant, and aromatic wines with slightly higher acidity and sweet tannins and is somewhat more delicate than the 2021s.

| Winery | The climate is continental, with long hot summers, temperatures reaching 40°C, and cold winters falling to 0°C, tempered by the proximity of the Mediterranean Sea. Planted at 900 metres elevation, the warm daytime temperatures are mitigated by cooler evenings, creating a long ripening period where the fruit develops concentrated flavours balanced by refreshing acidity. The area is arid with low rainfall, most of which falls during spring and autumn, often during violent storms. The soils are dark and lime-bearing, and some have a hard lime crust; overall, they are permeable and have good moisture-retaining properties, which allows the vines to survive during prolonged periods of drought. They are poor in organic matter, and their structure does not support phylloxera due to the sand content. The vines are certified organic and are manually harvested. |
