Product Description
Details

Made by young winemaker Adrià Domènech, a native from Porrera who recently launched his personal project, bodega L’Antic Magatzem, the wine Llum de Cal Pagès offers a fresh and irreverent take on world-famous Priorat. This, incidentally, is one of Adrià Domènech’s debut releases.

This red wine from Priorat is an equal parts blend of Grenache and Carignan, sourced from Les Sentius and El Bosc, two vineyards 20-25 years of age, with llicorella (slate) and sandy soils.

After going through a partial whole bunch fermentation and a 21 day skin maceration, the red wine Llum de Cal Pagès 2022 was aged for 6 months in ceramic amphorae.

Once bottled, it was stored for some months before hitting the market. Hence this Spanish red wine saw no wood at any stage of the process.

Only 786 bottles produced!

Aerate some time before drinking.

Nose

This blend of Grenache and Carignan has remarkable élan and transparency, with sour red berries, bitter cocoa, thyme and rosemary, enlivened by a hints of flowers and citrus over an earthy mineral background.

Palate

Tension and freshness define the personality of this wine of L’Antic Magatzem winery. A compelling mineral energy and an electric acidity combine with the crunchy red berries and floral hints, with powdery tannins and a long, stimulating finish with a dark stony note.

Our personal opinion

The wine Llum de Cal Pagès 2022 dares to be different. This is an intriguing and ultimately satisfying red Priorat.
