Product Description
Details
Made by the boutique winery Alemany i Corrió, the project of Catalan-born Irene Alemany and Frenchman Laurent Corrió, the red wine Sot Lefriec enjoys a deserved cult status among discerning wine aficionados, both in Spain and abroad.
Coming from Penedès, this garage wine is made from 50% Carignan coming from 70-year-old vineyards, 30% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon.
The grapes were painstainkingly selected both at the vineyard and in the cellar before being cold macerated and fermented in stainless steel tanks. After that, this red wine from Penedès was transferred into 40% new year French oak barrels, where it went through malolactic fermentation and was aged for 23 months.
In order to preserve its great qualities, the red wine Sot Lefriec 2020 was neither filtered nor clarified prior to bottling.
It is absolutely essential that you decant this Reserva red wine for a minimum of 1 hour before you drink it.
This small-batch red wine has serious ageing potential.
Additional Information
Additional Information
| Appearance | The red wine Sot Lefriec is deep purple with violet tinges and a garnet rim. |
|---|---|
| Nose | This blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Carignan has gravitas and real complexity, and it greatly benefits from a prolonged aeration. Mineral undertones, red berries and black fruit, evolving into garrigue, cocoa, coffee and a dash of smoke and chinese ink. |
| Palate | Excellent definition, with a laser-like acidity, sinwewy tannins and lots of inner energy. Brooding and deeply mineral, with smoked forest berries underscored by a mineral suggestion. This wine of Alemany i Corrió has an amazingly long finish. |
| Our personal opinion | Unquestionably world-class, the red wine Sot Lefriec 2020 is quite an experience. |
