Terroir Sense Fronteres Negre
Terroir Sense Fronteres Negre was born out of a quest to take advantage of the unique minerality and soul of Montsant and give liquid voice to the moderation and freshness of the clay hills that surround Priorat. Negre is a dry red blend of the region's traditional varieties Garnacha Noir (75%) and Carignan (25%). The grapes are vinified for up to 10 days in whole bunches with wild yeast in stainless steel tanks before spending 8 months of additional ageing, also in stainless steel. With a dedication to organic farming, this entry-level red speaks to and from the region, a fruit-in-a-bottle message that rewards those who choose to listen.
The fruit of the Grenache shines with a wild beauty, elegance and extravagance that is unaffected by any contact with the oak. Tantalizing aromas of crisp cherry and blackberry lead to an herbal yet ethereal glow that refuses to be defined. Medium-bodied, with silky red fruit flavors, deep spice and hints of licorice. A wine of equal ease and elegance, robust and refined, and interwoven with a network of fine-grained tannins and a persistent mineral finish. An incredible tribute to the fresh slopes of Montsant with body, structure and enough freshness to honour any Mediterranean meal.
