Product Description
Details
Coming from DOQ Priorat, Nunci Negre is produced by Celler Mas de les Pereres, the wine project started by Dirk Hoet in 1999.
This blended Spanish red wine is made from the following varieties: Grenache, Mazuela (better known in Priorat as Carignan), Syrah, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, all of which come from vines grown in llicorella (slate) soils using minimal intervention techniques.
Hand-picked and carefully selected, each variety was individually vinified in stainless steel tanks under controlled temperature.
After that, this red wine from Priorat was transferred into new, 2nd and 3rd year French oak barrels.
Then Nunci Negre 2016 was aged for 12 months. Finally, it was kept in the cellar for some years before being released onto the market.
Pair this Crianza red wine with oily fish recipes and meat dishes.
Aerate some time before drinking.
