Red Wine Finca Siós 2021
Availability: In stock
Produced in the western Catalan region of Costers del Segre, the red wine Finca Siós is interesting for a number of reasons.
Fist, it is made from a blend of organically farmed Grenache and Syrah vines planted amidst a landscape of olive trees and fruit trees. They were harvested by hand, selected both on site and in the cellar.
Most importantly, this Spanish red wine was fermented in open-air stone vats dating from the XIIth century and located near the vineyards.
After that, this red wine from Costers del Segre went through malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks.
Finally, the red wine Finca Siós 2021 was aged in 500-litre 2nd year French oak barrels for 12 months.
Before hitting the market, this Crianza red wine of the Costers del Sió winery was aged for some months in the bottle.
Production around 4,000 bottles.

---|---|
Nose | Conveying a very pure, ort of open-air feeling, this blend of Grenache and Syrah smells of red fruit and red roses over a deep mineral and earthy background, nuanced by spices, balsam and aromatic herbs. |
Palate | This wine of the Costers del Sió is crisp and nuanced. Texture is solid but loose, with no tension or oak suffocation. Delightfully pure, juicy red fruit, a touch of liquorice and, again, flowers and mineral suggestions. Long, complex finish. |
Our personal opinion | The red wine Finca Siós 2021 from Costers del Segre is intriguing and impeccably made. |
