(SOMMO) Alquez de Sommos vino de la tierra garnacha

PRODUCENT: Sommos
DRUIF: 🍇Grenache (old vines)
WIJNTYPE: Rood Hout
HERKOMST: vino de España (España): specially chosen from some of the oldest vineyards in the Sierra de Pardos and Sierra de Santa Cruz, near the towns of Castejon de Albarba, Alarba and Acered. Traditionally cultivated bush vines at an average altitude of 950m on slate slopes that have little organic content but excellent aeration. The vines are on average 60 years old and produce less than 1kg of grapes per plant. These conditions and characteristics give us a vineyard that is unique.
VITICULTUUR:
🌿 The harvest is done by hand using boxes of 400kg, to protect the small bunches from bruising and damage. The grapes are chilled and then hand picked on selection tables, removing any unwanted bunches.
✋🚜2nd week in october.
VINIFICATIE:
🍷 Traditional fermentation. The alcoholic and malolactic fermentations are carried out in stainless steel tanks with a capacity of 10,000 kg
⌛when the malolactic fermentation finishes the wine is racked and transferred into new French oak barrels for 12 months, where it remains in constant contact with the lees. During this time the 'battonage' technique is used to bring out the true personality of the granacha and the terroir from where it came.
DEGUSTATIE:
👁 intense cherry red with ruby tones, vibrant and bright
👃 attractive aromas of ripe red fruits and flowers, a touch of toasty wood and spice from the barrel aging.
👅 smooth, full bodied, rich in flavour with a long elegant finish.
