Availability: In stock
The family winery Vendrell-Rived from DO Montsant presents the first vintage of the wine Tres Germanes (meaning “three sisters”), a join effort between the owners of the winery and their three daughters.
This varietal Grenache is sourced from a 0.5-hectare certified organic vineyard planted in 2018 in the Les Pedrenyeres estate, composed of conglomerate soils.
After a manual harvest, the grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks for 25 days. Then this Spanish red wine was transferred into clay amphorae, where it was aged for 12 months.
Finally, the red wine Tres Germanes 2021 was bottled in February 2023 and kept for 8 months in the cellar before hitting the market.
The production of the first vintage of this Crianza red wine is ridiculously limited. Only 683 bottles!
Aerate some time before drinking.
Appearance | The wine Tres Germanes is deep ruby with some reddish reflections. |
---|---|
Nose | Vibrant and expansive, this varietal Grenache carries aromas of ripe strawberries, raspberries and boysenberries, with hints of Mediterranean garrigue and some earthy and mineral undertones. |
Palate | Lively and savoury, this wine of the Vendrell-Rived winery has a linear acidity and some supple tannins, with fresh red fruit, a dash of aromatic herbs and a long finish with a citrusy and mineral note. |
Our personal opinion | Bursting with flavour, the small-batch wine Tres Germanes 2021 is a seductive unwooded Mediterranean red. |
