Product Description
Details
Produced by bodega Àlvarez Duran, the wine Terroir X La Tercera is an impeccable Spanish red wine from Priorat made in a traditional style.
A blend of Carignan, Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the grapes come from bush vines planted on steep slate slopes which confer the wine a distinctive minerality.
Each variety was separately harvested and individually vinified in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts. After that, the wine Terroir X La Tercera 2021 was transferred into new French oak barrels, where it was aged for 14 months.
Finally, it was bottled and aged for a substantial period of time before hitting the market.
It is important to decant this Crianza red wine at the very least 1 hour before drinking.
Pair this red wine from Priorat with casseroles, hearty meat recipes and game dishes.
