Let's look at the foundation of this wine: it comes from the Grenache, Carignan and Syrah grape varieties, which have their origins deep in the deep black shale and red clay of the majestic mountain peaks of Vila del Lloar. At altitudes of 350-450m and aged 20-40 years, these vines provide the basis for an exceptional flavour spectacle. Vinification takes place in steel tanks, with some stemming and a touch of pigeage for 20 days. Maturation in French oak barrels for 12 months gives this drop its distinctive profile, while minimal use of sulphur brings out the authentic fruit.<\/p>\n
Visually, this vintage presents a bright purple colour that captivates and is complemented by purple highlights. The nose of the 2020 Gotes del Priorat is intoxicating, with an exotic blend of sour cherries, blackberries and blueberries, underlined by a floral bouquet of roses, violets and lavender, as well as the Mediterranean notes of thyme and rosemary.<\/p>\n
A symphonic melody of fruit unfolds on the palate, seamlessly blending with the animating and finely structured acidity that defines this wine. The minerality complements the taste experience and forms a perfectly shaped framework. Polished, fine-grained tannins provide a remarkable finish that emphasises the wine's storability while equally providing charming youthful freshness.<\/p>\n
As a food accompaniment, this red wine shows its versatility: it harmonises wonderfully with a vegetable paella or light pasta with mushrooms. But it is also bold enough to stand up to and complement fish dishes, such as a salmon fillet with orange and fennel salad. Try it with a juicy roast turkey with tomatoes, olives and capers - you will be delighted. This wine is a true all-rounder and allows for a diverse selection of gastronomic pairings.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
