Details
Sileo 2024
This is the 2024 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 2024 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.

| 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 | This wine of bodega At Roca is well balanced and fresh, with ripe tannins and a nice acidity underpinning the crunchy forest fruit. Medium long finish with some spicy and balsamic remembrances. |
| Our personal opinion | An honest, well-crafted Montsant, the wine Sileo 2024 is a great everyday sip. |
