Product Description
Details
This is the 2023 vintage of the wine Sileo, produced by the AT Roca winery through its branch Companyia Vitícola Sileo, based in DO Montsant.
Made from 80% Grenache and 20% Carignan, this Spanish red wine was sourced from organically farmed vineyards situated halfway between Falset, Pradell de la Teixeta and Cornudella de Montsant, at roughly 250 metres of altitude.
After a meticulous harvest, the grapes were fermented in stainless steel tanks. Then a fraction of the red wine Sileo 2023 was transferred into 500-litre French oak barrels and aged for some monts. The rest went through the same process in the steel tanks. Finally, the two batches were blended and bottled.
This is an honest, straightforward Montsant red wine.
Pair this Crianza red wine with meat recipes.
Additional Information
Additional Information
| Appearance | The red wine Sileo is medium ruby with a violet rim. |
|---|---|
| Nose | This blend of Grenache and Carignan smells of cranberries and bilberries, underscored by notes of Mediterranean garrigue, licorice, and a peppery note. |
| Palate | Fresh and lively, this red wine from AT Roca has some smooth, ripe tannins and a well-balanced acidity. Subtle remembrances of wild berries, fine wood, smoke underbrush and spices. Long finish with dim mineral undertones. |
| Our personal opinion | An honest, well-crafted Montsant, the wine Sileo 2023 makes for a great everyday sip. |
