Product Description
Details

Based in the DO Montsant, the coop Agrícola Ulldemolins Sant Jaume is the producer of this Spanish red wine.

A varietal Grenache, Les Pedrenyeres is produced from vineyards planted at altitudes above 600 metres. The area is called "Vall del Silenci" (yes, it means Silence Valley).

The grapes were manually harvested during the second half of October. Once in the cellar, they were destemmed and cold-macerated. Alcoholic fermentation was carried out in stainless steel tanks, and malolactic fermentation took place in vats.

After that, Les Pedrenyeres 2020 was aged for 14 months in American oak barrels, and for a further 12 months in the cellar before its release.

Aerate this red wine from Montsant 30 minutes before drinking.

Additional Information
Appearance

The red wine Les Pedrenyeres has an intense cherry colour with a ruby rim.

Nose

This varietal Grenache is quite expressive. This Crianza red wine conveys some intense aromas of red fruit and wild berries, underpinned by a deep mineral background, and notes of sweet spices and balsam.

Palate

Well-balanced, mildly unctuous and bold, this wine from Cooperativa Agrícola Ulldemolins de Sant Jaume has some ripe, smooth tannins, fresh acidity and a long finish, with remembrances of raspberries, aromatic herbs and spices.

Our personal opinion

The little-known Les Pedrenyeres 2020 is a superb value that pairs excellently with hearty dishes.

Cooperative wines like this one usually offer a great value for money. This wine gave me a very pleasant sensation. I found the aftertaste particularly nice, a mixture of herbs, juicy fruit and minerality.
