Porta Regia Monastrell Old Vines

This wine is produced from Monastrell bush vines that average 25 years old. Organic farming methods were used, but are not certified. Grapes were hand harvested, selecting bunches based on acidity, structure, and alcohol. The grapes underwent a low temperature maceration prior to fermentation which lasted for 4 days, increasing color and aroma in the finished wine. Aged in stainless steel tanks prior to bottling.

Dark ruby. Ripe black and blue fruit and spice qualities on the nose and palate, along with a hint of licorice. Broad, supple and gently sweet, showing good depth and a repeating spicy note on the nicely persistent, subtly tannic finish.
