Red Wine Pardas Negre Franc 2019

Produced by Celler Pardas, the wine Pardas Negre Franc is a Bordeaux blend made from certified organic vineyards situated in DO Penedès.

This blended Spanish red wine is composed of 76% Cabernet Franc and 24% Cabernet Sauvigon. The Cab. Franc grapes come from two parcels: Vinya de la Barraca, planted in 1996, and Les Obagues Velles, planted in 1998. The Cab. Sauvignon grapes are sourced solely from the first parcel. Both are farmed following environmentally friendly procedures, using no pesticides or chemical herbicides whatsoever.

The two grape varieties of this Penedès red wine were separately harvested and vinified. Fully destemmed, they were fermented and macerated in centenary concrete tanks lined with resin for 17 to 18 days.

After that, the wine Pardas Negre Franc 2019 completed a spontaneous malolactic fermentation, and then it was transferred into used 300 and 500-litre French oak barrels, where it was aged for 10 months. It was delicately filtered prior to bottling.

Aerate this Crianza red wine some time before drinking.
