L'Equilibrista Garnacha Red wine

Discover L'Equilibrista Garnacha , a remarkable red wine from the prestigious Catalonia Denomination of Origin, crafted by the esteemed Can Dez Mas winery. This 2018 vintage is a harmonious blend of Garnacha, Syrah, and Cariñena grapes, showcasing the unique characteristics of the region. With an alcohol content of 14.5%, it promises a full-bodied experience that wine aficionados will appreciate.

The production process involves careful de-stemming and fermentation using the natural yeasts found in the grapes. This occurs in stainless steel tanks ranging from 100 to 200 hl, where the temperature is meticulously controlled between 21-28 ºC, allowing for daily pump-overs that enhance the wine's depth. Following the completion of alcoholic fermentation, the wine undergoes spontaneous malolactic fermentation in the same tanks at 18-20 ºC, further enriching its complexity.

After fermentation, L'Equilibrista Garnacha is aged for an impressive 14 months in a combination of 225 and 500-liter French Allier and American oak barrels, sourced from various cooperages. This aging process imparts subtle oak nuances that complement the wine's vibrant fruit profile.

In the glass, L'Equilibrista Garnacha presents an intense and dark cherry red hue. The nose is a delightful bouquet of cherries, forest fruits, white flowers, and delicate rose petals, setting the stage for an equally captivating palate. The wine greets you with a creamy, sumptuous, and fruity first impression that leads to a beautifully balanced concentration. Notes of menthol and smooth tannins create a pleasing finish, making this Garnacha both juicy and inviting.

Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with a wide array of dishes, L'Equilibrista Garnacha is a splendid choice for any wine lover seeking a taste of Spain's rich winemaking heritage. Indulge in this exquisite red and let it elevate your dining experience.
