Product Description
Details
The wine Rhodes is sourced from vineyards with slate soils located in the northern part of DO Empordà, near the Catalan-French border.
This Spanish red wine is a blend of Grenache (52%), Carignan (33%) and Syrah (15%).
Produced by the Mas Llunes winery, the grapes were hand-harvested and meticulously sorted. Each variety was separately fermented in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperature, with two daily pump-overs. This organic red wine from L’Empordà was racked after 30-40 days, and then it went through malolactic fermentation.
After that, the wine Mas Llunes Rhodes 2021 was aged for 12 months in French oak barrels. This organic red wine was gently filtered and clarified before bottling.
We suggest decanting this Crianza red wine before drinking.

| Nose | This blend of Grenache, Carignan and Syrah is complex and deep, with prominent notes of underbrush and herbs, an earthy minerality and hints of exotic spices underpinning a dense core of black fruit. |
| Palate | It has the combination of power and freshness characteristic of the region, with deep balsamic notes, impeccable acidity, ripe forest berries and firm tannins. This wine of Mas Llunes winery has a very long finish with a savoury twist. |
| Our personal opinion | The wine Mas Llunes Rhodes 2021 is an unashamedly Mediterranean red. Like a good Gigondas or Rasteau, but with a darker, earthier twist. |
