Negre 2022

The Negre 2022 from Terroir Sense Fronteres is a single-varietal Garnacha Tinta from vineyards in the Montsant region. The organically farmed vineyards are located in the hinterland of the Catalan Mediterranean coast at an altitude of 300 to 350 metres. The red wine was fermented for a week with the raisins and matured solely in steel tanks. Although young, it is already expressive and sensual and has reached drinking maturity.

Initially, the wine has a subtle reductive note, which disappears after a little contact with the air and allows fresh blue and red fruit, especially cherry, to emerge. The attractive and extremely seductive bouquet also contains herbal nuances. 

The Negre 2022 is Garnacha par excellence - juicy red fruit, silky texture, fine tannins and a spicy finish. It is also impressive how fresh this red wine is from such a hot vintage. Despite the presumably early harvest, the wine is aromatically mature and expressive. It is crisp, but not green. The Gewächs is also much lighter on the palate than the 14% alcohol content would suggest. It is exemplary of the new Spain and its motto "less is more" Less extraction, less wood and less maturity ultimately mean more freshness, precision and finesse. This is no-frills elegance and easy-drinking with depth. The Negre 2022 is certainly a prime example that contradicts the image of the heavy Mediterranean red wine.
