Product Description
Details
Produced by the Escoda-Sanahuja winery, the wine Coll del Sabater is a highly interesting natural wine from the southern Catalan region of Conca de Barberà.
Produced following a minimal intervention approach to winemaking, the 2022 vintage of this organic and biodynamic has, as usual, a most unusual composition.
The main part of this Spanish red wine is Cabernet Franc, a varitey which winemaker Joan Ramon Escoda boldly decided to complement it with a 20% of Parellada, a local white grape of great aromatic finesse.
Harvested by hand and partially destemmed, the grapes were macerated and fermented together in clay amphorae using only indigenous yeasts. Then this no added sulfur red wine was aged for 7 months on lees in the amphorae.
Prior to bottling, the red wine Coll del Sabater 2022 was neither filtered nor clarified.
Decant this red wine from Conca de Barberà at least 20 minutes before drinking.
Additional Information
Additional Information
| Appearance | The red wine Coll del Sabater is deep ruby with some maroon glints. |
|---|---|
| Nose | Slightly raw and pleasantly wild, this low-sulfites red wine needs some aeration to unfurl. Some earthy and mineral notes, evolving into a fleshy red fruit nuanced by flowers, herbs and spice. This blend of Cabernet Franc and Parellada is remarkably original. |
| Palate | Delicately warm, but also full of energy and confidence. Succulent red fruit, a note of cocoa and bitter herbs, and a first-rate acidity make for a very fresh natural wine. Gentler and more engaging than ever, this wine from Escoda-Sanahuja has a long finish with a mineral and pithy aftertaste. |
| Our personal opinion | Unconventional and very well crafted, the red wine Coll del Sabater 2022 is an unimpeachable no added sulfites red wine from Conca de Barberà. |

Sabater
A Bordeaux blend made in a natural wine style. Pure, immensely enjoyable, finely crafted. Very important: leave it 2 hours in the decanter before you drink it.
