Production:

Made entirely from old Grenache vines. It is sourced from "Les Coves", their own vineyard planted in 1962 and situated at 410 metres above sea level with primarily clayey soils.

Fermentation takes place at temperatures between 14º and 16ºC. Spent about 4 months in stainless steel tanks, on its lees, with frequent batonnage to gain complexity and volume.

Tasting Notes:

Aroma of ripe white fruits: pear and peach, with revealing notes of Mediterranean herbs: lavender and thyme combined with a touch of citrus. It's fresh and pleasant on the palate, displays good Mediterranean character and minerality, and lots of fruit flavours that finish with an elegant length.

Notes: Best enjoyed in its youth, over the next 1-2 years.

The Xavier Clua Wine Cellar is located in the village of Vilalba dels Arcs, one of the twelve communes of the Denomination of Origin of Terra Alta. A long-established winery, the name Clua has been associated with the production of wines for four generations, and today is the latest generation, led by Xavier Clua, who runs the viticulture and winemaking sides of the business.

The family-owned vineyards are located in southern Tarragona's Ebre region, around the village of Vilalba dels Arcs. The climate is influenced by both the Mediterranean and the continental, and the soil is made up of calcareous clays with low levels of organic material but is rich in elements that favour good drainage.
