Red Wine Exibis 2021
Availability: In stock
A young, unoaked Spanish red wine made by Can Serra dels Exibis, Exibis is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and two extremely interesting native varieties. The recently recovered, high-acidic Sumoll, and the little-known, delicate Mandó.
All of them come from vineyards grown following the principles of biodynamic agriculture in the Pla de Bages region, located in central Catalonia. The vines are planted on terraces with clay and limestone soils at an altitude of 500 metres above sea level. Climate is Mediterranean-Continental.
Handpicked in boxes and refrigerated at a temperature of 4ºC prior to alcoholic fermentation, Exibis 2021 was fermented in open tanks with periodic punch-downs. Skin maceration did not last longer than 8 days. Finally, this red wine from Pla de Bages was aged for 3 months in the tanks.
Appearance | The red wine Exibis is medium ruby with a violet rim. |
---|---|
Nose | This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Sumoll and Mandó exhibits aromas of wild berries, forgotten flowers and aromatic herbs. Untarnished expression of fruit amidst a forest environment. |
Palate | This red wine of Can Serra dels Exibis is fresh, tense and very lively. Notes of forest floor, along with a bouquet of flowers and flavours of ripe black and red fruit. Tannins are ripe and acidity is noticeable. Long finish with a mineral aftertaste. |
Our personal opinion | The little-known Exibis 2021 is an extremely good value. |
