Product Description
Details
The red wine Vall del Calàs is made from an equal blend of Grenache and Carignan, sourced from organically certified vineyards with granite and clay soils, typical of the Montsant region.
Manually harvested and selected twice, each of the grape varieties was separately vinified according to its specific requirements.
After being destemmed, the grape bunches were macerated for 14-20 days and fermented in stainless steel tanks. Then this Spanish red wine was transferred into French oak barrels, where it was aged for a period of 12 months.
Finally, the wine Vall del Calàs 2022 was blended and aged for a further 3 months in the cellar prior to its release, so that it could naturally stabilize.
Aerate this red wine from Montsant made by the Celler de Capçanes winery 30 minutes before drinking.

| Appearance | The red wine Vall del Calàs is medium purple with some garnet tinges. |
|---|---|
| Nose | This vegan wine has a suggestive and layered nose, as one could expect from a blend of Grenache and Carignan. Ripe red berries, with suggestions of clove, vanilla and thyme, combined with some mineral and balsamic undertones. |
| Palate | Well-balanced and characterful, this red wine from Celler de Capçanes is fruit-driven and gently spicy. Smooth tanins and crisp acidity, with a dimly mineral background and a long, expressive mineral finish. |
| Our personal opinion | The wine Vall de Calàs 2022 will pair wonderfully with BBQs, roasted meats and cured Manchego cheeses |

I recommend this wine. It is an unpretentious but very nice red from Catalonia. No imbalances, no excesses, just fruit and a touch of herbs wrapped in freshness. And it is organic.
