Red Wine Cal Pla Negre 2021
Availability: In stock
A blend of Grenache and Carignan, Cal Pla Negre from Celler Cal Pla is made from young vines planted in Mas d'en Caçador, a vineyard with llicorella (slate) soils on the outskirts of Porrera, in the heart of rugged Priorat.
The grapes were picked by hand and meticulously selected. Once in the cellar, this Spanish red wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperature.
After that, Cal Pla Negre 2021 was aged in 60% French and 40% American 2nd year oak barrels, where it was aged for 12 months.
This flavourful red wine from Priorat will make a nice pairing with cold cuts and stews
