Red Wine Flor de Trufes Negre 2020
Availability: In stock
Made in Batea, a village within the DO Terra Alta, the wine Flor de Trufes Negre is a blend of Grenache (60%) and Hairy Grenache (40%). This Spanish red wine was produced by Bodega Vins Algars from vines around 35 years old on average, farmed following the principles of organic agriculture.
Fermented in stainless steel tanks for 7 days under controlled temperature, this Crianza red wine was then macerated for 21 days. After completing malolactic fermentation, the wine was transferred into French and American oak barrels. Finally, the red wine Flor de Trufes Negre 2020 was aged for a period of 12 months, blended and bottled.
We suggest pairing this organic red wine from Terra Alta with stews, red meat dishes and, if you feel adventurous, bitter chocolate.
