Product Description
Details

This elegant Spanish red wine is produced by the Huguet de Can Feixes winery. It is made from a blend of Ull de Llebre (Tempranillo), Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.

The vinification of Can Feixes Negre Tradició was meticulous. Each variety was separately processed in stainless steel tanks.

After that, they were also separately aged for 12 months in French oak barrels.

Then Can Feixes Negre Tradició 2013 was blended and aged in tanks for a short period of time to allow for the perfect blending of the four wines.

Finally, this organic red wine from Penedès was aged for 4 years in the bottle before its commercial release.

Decant this Crianza red wine 1 hour before drinking.

Additional Information
Additional Information
Appearance

The wine Can Feixes Negre Tradició is medium ruby with a garnet rim.

Nose

This blend of Ull de Llebre, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot carries aromas of smoke, leather and Havanna cigars, with suggestive notes of black fruit, green bell pepper, moka, red berries, white pepper and balsam.

Palate

Mature and well-balanced, this Crianza red wine has a medium body and a savoury passage through the palate. Complex notes of spices, tobacco, vegetables and toast, underpinned by remembrances of wild berries and garrigue. This red wine from Bodega Huguet de Can Feixes has a good acidity, smooth tannins and long, toasted finish.

Our personal opinion

Nearing its peak, Can Feixes Negre Tradició 2013 is a ridiculously well priced organic red wine from Penedès that will pair excellently with meat dishes.

I very much appreciate the fact that a winery sells a wine when it is fully mature. This is drinking excellently right now.
