Description
Terroir Sense Fronteres Negre is a liquid expression of the uniqueness and soul of Montsant, a region surrounding the famous Priorat. This wine was born from the quest to capture the unique minerality and character of Montsant.
The wine is made exclusively with the Garnacha Tinta variety , in the Montsant region, in vineyards ranging in age from 15 to 35 years, altitudes of 300 to 350 metres above sea level, and a clay and sandy soil type .
Winemaking
The must ferments with indigenous yeasts for 7 days with whole clusters in stainless steel tanks, followed by an additional 6 months of ageing in the same stainless steel tanks. With a commitment to organic farming, this entry-level red wine speaks of and for the region, conveying a fruit-driven message that rewards those who choose to listen.
Taste
Terroir Sense Fronteres Negre stands out for its flavour. The sight reveals a bright cherry colour. The nose reveals enticing aromas of crisp cherries and blackberries, accompanied by herbal nuances. The palate is medium-bodied, with silky flavours of red fruits, spices and hints of liquorice. It is an easy and elegant wine, equal parts robust and refined, with fine tannins and a lingering mineral finish.
