Product Description
Details
Produced by the Albet i Noya winery, Albet i Noya Lignum Negre is made from a blend of 3 grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache and Merlot, coming from 3 different estates located in Serra de l'Ordal, in the very heart of Penedès.
Harvest was carried out manually. Once in the cellar, this Spanish red wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks with daily pump-overs. After that, it was aged for 12 months in 225-litre, mostly French, but also American oak barrels.
Once the process was completed, Albet i Noya Lignum Negre 2018 was gently filtered, stabilized and aged for a further 4 months in the bottle before its release.
