Production:

Selecció Neu is a very limited production of just 285 bottles, made exclusively from selected Carignan grapes of La Tena vineyard, 100% old vines of over 100 years old growing on the slatey Llicorella soil at an altitude of 450 meters above sea level.

No additives are used for clarification, and fermentation takes place with the fruit's natural yeast only. Aged during 24 months in a single new French Allier barrique.

Tasting notes:

Selecció Neu is similar to Selecció Roi, quite aromatic, dense and rich, shows spices and ripe fruits, mineral and expressive. Very elegant and long.

Notes: It is recommended to decant for a good few hours before serving. This wine has a great potential for ageing, should evolve for another few years, and will gain with some time in bottle.
