Production:  

Sourced from 25 year old Manto Negro vines located in the municipal district of Binissalem at an altitude of 139 m. above sea level on predominantly clay-calcareous soils, and from 10 year old Syrah vines located in the municipal district of Sta. Maria at an altitude of 200 m above sea level and planted on clay loam soils rich in ferric oxide, which are locally known as “Call Vermell” because of its reddish colour.

The grapes follow a careful hand selection process. The fermentation takes place 80% in stainless steel deposits and 20% in 225 and 500-litre barrels. Ageing during 15 months in new French oak barrels medium toasted.

Tasting Notes: Attractive harmonious nose of  red and black fruits, balsamic with hints of spiciness and minerality. Medium-bodied with a lovely smooth silky texture, fresh, lively style, refined with a balanced fresh acidity. Highly recommended!

Notes:  To be drank over the next 4 – 5 years.
