Red Wine Via Edetana Negre 2021
Availability: In stock
Coming from the increasingly interesting region of Terra Alta, southern Catalonia, Via Edetana Negre is a phenomenal value.
A blend of 50% Grenache and 50% Hairy Grenache, this Spanish red wine from bodega Edetària is produced from vines between 20 and 40 years of age.
The grapes are sourced from certified organic vineyards with sandy, carbonated and clayey soils located near the town of Gandesa.
Separately harvested and meticulously selected on site, the grapes were fermented and macerated in stainless steel tanks. After that, this red wine from Terra Alta was blended and aged for 12 months in 500-litre French oak barrels.
Finally, Via Edetana Negre 2021 was blended, bottled and aged for some months before hitting the market.
Aerate this Crianza red wine 1 hour before drinking.
Appearance | The wine Via Edetana Negre is medium ruby with a garnet rim. |
---|---|
Nose | Pleasantly Mediterranean, this blend of Grenache and Hairy Grenache bursts with aromas of sour cherries, ripe strawberries and red flowers, nuanced by toast and spices over a mineral background. |
Palate | Yummy and fresh, this red wine of the Edetària winery nicely balances fruit and oak. Red fruit, well-rounded tannins and lively acidity, with and dash of broom and garrigue. Long, gently spicy finish. |
Our personal opinion | Somewhat fresher than in previous vintages, Via Edetana Negre 2021 is a versatile and pleasant wine. |
