Description
In a nutshell:
A rich and complex red blend from coastal Catalonia near the Spanish border with France.
The lowdown:
The wine region of Empordà is in the top right hand corner of Spain hard up against the border with Roussillon in France. It's also where the famous El Bulli restaurant used to be where the man responsible for this wine, David Seijas, was head sommelier for many years. This is a blend of Garnacha which was fermented and aged in stainless steel and Cariñena which was aged in used French oak for around 10 months. After blending it was bottled and aged for a further three months prior to release. The result is a multifacted and quite opulent wine with notes of autumnal fruits like red cherries and blackberries that merge among notes of violets, rosemary and liquorice.
When to drink:
Generous and welcoming it's great with rich, warming casseroles and stews.
