Our sweetest Priorat wine
Extreme conditions of temperature during the summer and the concentration in the grapes provided by the terroir allow us to produce this excellent red sweet wine. Grapes were naturally overripe until the perfect point before they were harvested. We stopped the alcoholic fermentation to leave the residual sugars that give the sweetness, smoothness and character to the wine.

Tasting Note
Intense deep ruby with purple tones.
Great aromatic intensity and complexity with explicit presence of dry fruit aromas well balanced with the touch of toasty notes from the oak.
On the palate it is soft and velvety. Intense roma of dry fruits combined with vanilla and toasty notes from the barrel. Persistent and pleasant aftertaste.
“Ripe, viscous red fruits, sweet hazelnut, vanilla, creamed citrus notes, very aromatically complex. Very expressive on the palate as well with a wealth of dark fruits bounded in by vibrant acidity and excellent length.”
