Red Wine Finca Viladellops Selecció Garnatxa 2022
Availability: In stock
This is the new vintage of the wine Finca Viladellops Selecció Garnatxa - formerly known as Finca Viladellops Negre - made by Bodega Finca Viladellops from vineyards located in the Garraf mountain range. This is a subzone of DO Penedès that, due to the limestone, fossil-rich soils and vicinity to the sea, produces wines with a distinctive mineral character
Made from 35-year-old vineyards, this Spanish red wine is now a varietal Grenache.
Manually harvested and selected both on site and in the cellar, each variety was separately vinified in stainless steel tanks. After undergoing a pre-fermentative maceration and alcoholic fermentation, this organic red wine went through malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels.
After that, the wine Finca Viladellops Selecció Garnatxa 2022 was aged for 12 months in the barrels. Finally, the wine was blended and kept for at least 12 months in the cellar before its release.
We suggest that you aerate this red wine from Penedès 30 minutes before you drink it.

Our personal opinion | The amazingly priced wine Finca Viladellops Selecció Garnatxa 2022 shows a completely different side of the well-known Penedès area. And a most interesting one at that. |
