Product Description
Details
Made from 30 to 60-year-old vineyards, the wine Domus Pensi comes from Batea, a village located the southern Catalan region of Terra Alta.
Produced by the Altavins winery, this Spanish red wine is made from Grenache, Syrah, Merlot and Samsó (Carignan).
The vines are grown in poor soils, in an area with very hot summers and cold winters.
Harvested manually, the grapes were macerated and fermented in stainless steel tanks.
After that, the wine Domus Pensi 2019 was aged for 18 months in French oak barrels. Finally, this red wine from Terra Alta was further aged for 24 months in the bottle.
Decant this Reserva red wine 30-40 minutes before drinking.

Additional Information
| Appearance | The wine Domus Pensi is medium purple with some violet tinges. |
|---|---|
| Nose | This blend of Grenache, Merlot, Syrah and Samsó is complex and quite deep. Ripe black fruit and amarena cherries, with some spices and menthol. There is a background of smoke, dry earth and underbrush. |
| Palate | Well-balanced and lively, with potential for growth, this wine of the Altavins winery carries flavours of liquor-infused fruit, licorice, clove, cocoa, tobacco and aromatic herbs. This vegan wine has a crisp, refreshing acidity, ripe tannins and long finish with some toasted and mineral remembrances. |
| Our personal opinion | Deep and hugely enjoyable, the wine Domus Pensi 2019 is a little-known jewel from Terra Alta. |
