Product Description
Details
The little-known Sang de Corb is a radically indigenous Spanish red wine produced in the southern Catalonian region of Terra Alta, a place with blisteringly hot summers and bitterly cold winters.
This wine is made from a blend of Grenache, Hairy Grenache and Carignan coming from a single vineyard, Dellà del Riu, planted with vines over 65 years old. Certified organic, the vines are located in a pristine environment, surrounded by almond, apple and olive trees.
Produced by the exceedingly interesting Celler Frisach, a company with an uncompromising terroir-oriented approach to winemaking, this red wine from Terra Alta was traditionally vinified in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperature.
After that, Sang de Corb 2021 was aged for 12 months in 300-litre used French oak barrels.
Decant this Crianza red wine a minimum of 1 hour before drinking.
Additional Information
Additional Information
| Appearance | The red wine Sang de Corb is medium ruby with a violet rim. |
|---|---|
| Nose | This expressive blend of Grenache, Hairy Grenache and Carignan has a truly appealing nose. Fragrant notions of red fruit, alongside some citric touches, some floral nuances, a dash of dry earth, notes of undergrowth and dim toasted nuances over a seductive mineral background. |
| Palate | Bold and immensely vital, this red wine from Celler Frisach has a powerful entrance balanced by a tense acidity and a great freshness. Enticing notes of red berries over a mineral background and a panoply of Mediterranean herbs. Mild tannins and a very long, gently mineral finish. |
| Our personal opinion | An "unplugged" wine in the best sense of the term, Sang de Corg 2021 is as terroir-driven as it gets. |

A truly nice wine, sort of "peasant wine 2.0". Very pure and well balanced. Check out the rest of the wines of this producer.
