From the steep slate slopes of Gratallops, in the very heart of Priorat, the Trossos del Priorat winery proudly presents Lo Món.
This bold Spanish red wine is produced from vines grown in slate soils and farmed following the guidelines of organic agriculture.
Made from a complex blend of Grenache, Carignan, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, the grapes were harvested by hand and selected in the vineyard.
Once in the cellar the grapes were destemmed and fermented in stainless steel tanks. Then, the wine was drawn off and transferred into 225-litre French oak barrels, where it completed malolactic fermentation and was aged for 12 months.
After that, this red wine from Priorat was bottled and aged for a further 12 months in the cellar prior to its release.
We suggest that you decant Lo Món 2015 at least 40 minutes before you drink it.
Appearance | The red wine Lo Món has a bright, clean medium cherry-coloured robe with a violet rim. |
---|---|
Nose | A little shy at first, as this Crianza red wine from Priorat gains steam the mineral notes become ever more present, combined with some aromas of menthol, black and red fruit, combined with touches of spices, Mediterranean garrigue and toast. Quite complex. |
Palate | Meaty and velvety, with a rock-solid structure, this red wine from Trossos del Priorat has a freshness that sustains graciously its weight. Well-balanced and savoury, with excellent definition, first-class acidity, bold tannins and a long, mineral finish. |
Our personal opinion | Thought it might seem a little imposing at first sight, Lo Món 2015 is not a beefy wine. Give it a try and you will be delighted by its gentleness and complexity. |
