Product Description
Details
Produced by the Albet i Noya winery, who pioneered the use of organic farming in Penedès more than three decades ago, Albet i Noya Col·lecció Syrah is a single estate Spanish red wine.
More specifically, it is made from 25-year-old Syrah grapevines planted at 360 metres above sea level, in a south-oriented vineyard located in Costers de Mediona, a place belonging to Costers de L'Anoia, a subzone of the DO Penedès.
Harvested by hand, the grapes were destemmed, macerated for a period of 18 days, and fermented for 8 days at a temperature of 27ºC.
After that, this red wine from Penedès was transferred into 1st and 2nd year French oak barrels, where it was aged for 14 months.
Finally, as with Finca La Milana, one of the winery's flagship wines, Albet i Noya Col.lecció Syrah 2015 was only gently filtered, but neither clarified nor stabilized prior to its bottling.
Aerate 1 hour before drinking.
Drink through 2025.

Syrah
The best thing about this wine is that it does not try to reinvent the wheel. No excentricities, but classicism at its best. Excellent fruit and good craftmanship.

Fully mature. No rough edges, the baby fat has gone away. Fresh and crisp, lots of flowers and terroir too.
