Product Description
Details

The wine Llicorella Clàssic from DOQ Priorat is made by bodega Llicorella, a brand belonging to Cellers Unió, one of Catalonia’s most important wine cooperatives.

A blend of the traditional varieties Grenache and Carignan, this Spanish red wine is sourced from low- yielding vineyards planted on steep slate slopes at 100 to 700 metres of altitude.

This blended red wine from Priorat was vinified in stainless steel tanks. After that, the red wine Llicorella Clàssic 2020 was aged for 12 months in oak barrels.

Once bottled, this Crianza red wine was further aged in the cellar before being released onto the market.

Decant before drinking. Pair with game recipes, hearty winter stews and blue cheese.

Appearance

The red wine Llicorella Clàssic is deep purple with some cherry-coloured reflections.

Nose

Deep notes of charcoal, graphite and petrichor, dark and intriguing, with ripe forest berries, a fleck of vanilla and cocoa, with some crème de cassis. This blend of Grenache and Carignan has a toasted and balsamic background.

Palate

Powerful and characterful, this wine of Cellers Unió winery is polished, fresh and totally delicious, with ripe tannins, the trademark Priorat acidity and loads of wild berries with some balsamic and spicy notes, ending with a deep mineral and smokey remembrance.
