Product Description
Details
Made from vines situated near Marçà, the wine Volador Negre Magnum is a 1.5 litre Spanish red wine from DO Montsant.
The wine is a blend of Grenache, Samsó (a.k.a. Carignan) & Syrah, planted more than thirty years ago in soils composed mainly of llicorella (black slate) and sauló (decomposed granite).
Crafted by Josep Grau Viticultor, the grapes were manually harvested and brought to the cellar in little boxes. After a careful selection, they were partially destemmed and subsequently fermented with indigenous yeasts and macerated in concrete vats and stainless steel tanks.
After that, the red wine Volador Negre 2022 Magnum was aged for 5 months in those same containers.
Once the three wines have been blended, this young red wine rests for a few months in the bottle.
Decant this red wine from Montsant 30 minutes before drinking.

| Appearance | The red wine Volador Negre Magnum is medium ruby with a garnet rim. |
|---|---|
| Nose | Fresh and fragrant aromas of blackberries and blackcurrants, along with a perfume of violets. In the background, this blend of Grenache, Samsó and Syrah insinuates some notions of toast, cocoa and tobacco, and some deep mineral undertones. |
| Palate | Defined by its freshness and agility, this red wine from Josep Grau Viticultor has some mild tannins, an extremely inviting texture and a refreshing acidity. Long and crisp, with a persistent finish that leaves remembrances of ripe fuit, toast, tobacco and liquorice. |
| Our personal opinion | The red wine Volador Negre 2022 Magnum is honest, expressive and amazingly priced. |

An amazing value. This has everything you might look for in a wine. Good fruit, texture, a solid structure, a nice, fresh acidity, and an inviting finish.
