Product Description
Details

The red wine Llum d’Alena is one of the entry-level bottlings of bodega Cal Batllet, a family winery from Gratallops, DOQ Priorat, run by Marc Ripoll Sans

This varietal Grenache wine is sourced from 25-year-old vineyards, which were hand-harvested, fermented under controlled temperature in vats, racked and macerated for 30 days with manual pump- overs.

After that, this red wine from Priorat was transferred into Flextank eggs, where it went through a controlled micro-oxygenation process for a period of 12 months. It is worth noting that this Spanish red wine was not aged in oak or any sort of wood.

After bottling, the red wine Llum d’Alena 2019 was kept for some months in the cellar before hitting the market.

Aearate this Crianza red wine some time before drinking.

Appearance

The red wine Llum d’Alena is deep ruby with some cherry-coloured reflections.

Nose

This varietal Grenache is full-bodied and fruit-forward, with succulent ripe cherries and strawberries, a note of mint, liquorice and vanilla, and hints of graphite, herbs and wild flowers.

Palate

Silky and gently warm, with jammy forest berries, a lively acidity, ripe tannins and touch of sweetness. Powerful due to its ABV, but never overpowering, this wine of bodega Cal Batllet suggests smoke, medicinal herbs and vainilla, leading to a long spicy and mineral finish.

Our personal opinion

The red wine Llum d’Alena 2019 is a luscious red Priorat.
