Herencia Altes Garnatxa Negra 2015 (750ML)

Bright crimson in color, this wine is very expressive with notes of red fruits and minerals that leap from the glass. Plenty of fruit on the palate, a touch of complexity and sweet tannin. Pairs well with grilled meats, cabrito and lamb.

Herencia Alt's is a project a long time in the making. For generations my family has been one of grape growers, with vineyards dispersed around the village of Batea. Now, I have decided to give these grapes their own personality in the form of these hand-crafted wines.

While Terra Alta is not yet a well-known region - tucked away in the south eastern corner of Catalonia it borders Arag_n and Valencia - it is one of the largest areas in Catalunya under vine. With plenty of old Garnatxa bush vines, I think it is among the best regions in terms of quality and authenticity. -Winemaker
