Ecológico
Produced by bodega Rendé Masdéu, the wine Rendé Masdéu Arnau is an interesting Spanish red wine coming from an area of DO Conca de Barberà, southern Catalonia, which shares some characteristics with the neighbouring Priorat.
This varietal organic red wine is sourced from Syrah vines, 25 years old on average, located near the Protected Natural Space of Muntanyes de Prades and grown in llicorella (slate) soils which impart a distinctively mineral vibe to the wine.
Hand-picked in 15 kg boxes and fully destemmed, 85% of the grapes were fermented under controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks, and the other 15% was macerated and fermented in oak barrels.
After that, the red wine Rendé Masdéu Arnau Syrah 2021 was aged for 12 monts in French and American oak barrels.
Finally, this Crianza red wine was kept in the cellar for some months before being commercially released.
Decant this red wine from Conca de Barberà 30 minutes before drinking.
Pair with casseroles, roast recipes and game dishes.
