Red Wine De Muller Legítim 2021
Availability: In stock
Bodega De Muller winery produces the red wine De Muller Legítim from vineyards located in the valley of the Siurana river, in the heart of Priorat.
This blended Spanish red wine is made from Grenache, Syrah and Carignan.
The grapes were harvested between late September and the beginning of October. Then this Crianza red wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks.
After that, the red wine De Muller Legítim 2020 was aged for 12 months in French and American oak barrels. Finally, this vegan red wine was aged for some months in the bottle before its release.
Aerate this red wine from Priorat 30 minutes before drinking.
Appearance | The wine from Priorat De Muller Legítim is medium purple with a ruby rim. |
---|---|
Nose | Red berries and jammy black fruit, nuanced by some delicate toasted hints, remembrances of clove and vanilla, a dash of black pepper and some mineral undertones. This blend of Grenache, Syrah and Carignan is quite expressive. |
Palate | Meaty and velvety, this red wine of bodega De Muller has a good definition and some crunchy, lively tannins, a steely acidity and a long finish with notes of Mediterranean garrigue and wild berries. |
Our personal opinion | An amazingly priced Priorat, the red wine De Muller Legítim 2020 pairs very well with meat and game dishes. |
