Red Wine Heus Negre 2021
Availability: In stock
Produced by La Vinyeta, Heus Negre comes from the northern Catalan region of L'Empordà, not far from the French border.
Made mostly from Grenache coming from over 50-year-old vines, this Spanish red wine is complemented with tiny amounts of Carignan and Syrah. The vines are farmed following sustainable, environmentally-friendly procedures.
The grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks for almost a month. After that, Heus Negre 2021 was filtered, clarified and stabilized prior to its bottling.
Pair this red wine from L'Empordà with finger food and light dishes.

Nose | Quite intense, this blend of Grenache, Carignan and Syrah smells of ripe red and black fruit, combined with some herbaceous notes and dim mineral undertones. |
Palate | Meaty and consistent, the freshness of this young red wine from La Vinyeta gives it a nice drinkability. Fruit-driven, with well integrated tannins and a good acidity. Medium finish. |
Our personal opinion | Yummy and easy-to-drink, Heus 2021 from L'Empordà pairs excellently with meat dishes and tapas. |
