Origin

Produced in the Terra Alta region of Catalonia, Spain, an area known for its Mediterranean climate and diverse terroir.

Variety

Made primarily from the Samso grape, also known as Carignan, a traditional variety in the region prized for its robust character and aging potential.

Production

The wine undergoes controlled fermentation followed by aging in oak barrels for a minimum of 12 months, adhering to Crianza classification standards. This process enhances complexity and integrates oak nuances with the fruit profile.

  • Finish: Persistent and elegant finish with a touch of toasted oak.

Food pairings

  • Grilled red meats such as lamb or beef.
  • Hearty stews and casseroles.
  • Mature cheeses like Manchego or aged Gouda.
