Appearance

The red wine Finca Olivardots Vermell is medium ruby with a crimson rim and some violet tinges.

Nose

Fresh and expressive, bearing the mark of the Empordà terroir. This blend of Syrah, Grenache and Carignan carries aromas of ripe berries, nuanced by some lactic touches, alongside a touch of spices, a smokey hint and notions of liquorice and cocoa.

Palate

Well-balanced and savoury, with a refreshing acidity with some ripe, sweet tannins. Fruit-driven, very pleasant and drinkable, with savoury notes of toast and smoke. This wine of Vinyes d'Olivardots has a long finish with a remembrance of cherries, liquorice and dry earth.

Our personal opinion

Honest and affordable, the wine Finca Olivardots Vermell 2021 is an inviting wine which pairs well with many kinds of food.

Value
A killer value from a not-so-well-known winery, at least outside of Catalonia, where I live. Solid item.
