Red Wine Bellmunt 2021

Produced by Mas d’en Gil, the red wine Bellmunt is a blend of the traditional Priorat varieties Grenache and Samsó (Carignan). The grapes were sorted from the youngest vines of the winery, planted in llicorella (slate) soils between 1994 and 1998.

Since this Spanish red wine is made from organically certified vines located near the the village of Bellmunt del Priorat, it is legally recognised as a Vi de Vila ("Village Wine", to put it in Burgundian terms).

Harvested by hand, both grape varieties were separately vinified in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperature.

Then this Crianza red wine was aged for 10 months in 225, 1,500 and 3,000-litre French oak barrels and vats. Finally, the red wine Bellmunt 2021 was blended and aged for further 12 months in the bottle before its commercial release.

Pair this Priorat red wine with stews and meat recipes.
