Product Description
Details

This interesting Spanish red wine comes from the windswept region of L'Empordà, in northern Catalonia.

Delightfully rugged and full of character, the wine L'Oratori is a blend of Grenache, Carignan, Merlot and Syrah.

Once in the cellar, the grapes were cold-macerated and fermented in stainless steel tanks.

Then, the wine L'Oratori 2023 of the Martí Fabra winery was aged for 12 months in underground concrete tanks, a fact that gives the wine a distinctive character.

Aerate this red wine from L'Empordà 30 minutes before drinking.

Additional Information
Appearance

The red wine L'Oratori is deep purple with a bluish rim.

Nose

Quite expressive, this blend of Grenache, Carignan, Merlot and Syrah smells of red berries and liquorice, with notes of Mediterranean undergrowth, fennel and dry earth.

Palate

Rugged and authentic, this red wine of Martí Fabra is wonderfully fresh and fruit-driven, with grainy tannins, a crisp acidity and an earthy-balsamic character. Long, gently warm finish.

Our personal opinion

A ridiculously good value, the red wine L'Oratori 2023 is a versatile wine made to be paired with BBQ'd meat.

Value
This wine has the peculiarly earthy, bone-dry Empordà character, but also its character and authenticity. No masks. A pure wine with an exceptional price.
