Product Description
Details
The wine Destrankis is the 'naughtiest' – as defined by its producer – of the wines made by bodega Aixalà Alcaït (Pardelasses), a family winery from DOQ Priorat that you should definitely keep under your radar.
This blended Spanish red wine is made from 80% Grenache and 20% Carignan, sourced from two organically certified and biodynamically farmed vineyards, L'Alzinaret and Les Planes, composed of llicorella (slate) soils and planted around 25 years ago on the outskirts of Torroja del Priorat, at 350 metres of altitude.
The grapes were hand-picked and carefully selected. This red wine from Priorat was fermented in stainless steel tanks. Then, the red wine Destrankis 2022 was aged for 9 months in French and American oak barrels, old and new.
This Crianza red wine showcases the jolliest side of Priorat.
Additional Information
Additional Information
| Appearance | The red wine Destrankis is deep ruby with some cherry-coloured reflections. |
|---|---|
| Nose | Succulent red fruit – strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant – intertwined with subtle mineral notes and hints of vanilla and chocolate over a smokey and earthy background. This organic red wine from Grenache and Carignan is both characterful and approachable. |
| Palate | This wine of the Aixalá-Alcaït winery is smooth-bodied a quite easy to drink, with a palate-cleansing acidity, well-rounded tannins and a mineral and herbal freshness to the cherry red fruit. Long, mildly spicy, gently bitter-ish finish. |
| Our personal opinion | The wine Destrankis 2022 is an atypically cheerful, uplifting Priorat. |
