Tasting notes La Vinya del Vuit 2018

Red wine Respectful agriculture. 18 months in oak barrels.

La Vinya del Vuit 2018 is a red wine that on the nose stands out for its intense aromas of ripe fruits, abundant spicy notes nuanced with toasted hints, and memories of black fruits in liqueur. On the palate, it is full-bodied, well-structured, with a concentration reminiscent of the classic style characteristic of Priorat. A red wine that, despite its intensity and body, offers freshness and elegance. A red to be savoured leisurely, promising a pleasant evolution in the bottle.

About La Vinya del Vuit

La Vinya del Vuit is a red wine produced by La Vinya del Vuit in Gratallops (Tarragona), D.O.Q. Priorat.
 

 

Since 2001, eight oenologists (‘vuit’ means eight in Catalan) among which are Sara Pérez and René Barbier, got together to share their ideas and create a different and unique wine, year after year, using recovered vineyards and following traditional vinification methods.
 

La Vinya del Vuit is a wine made with Carignan and a small amount of Grenache, from a 70-year-old vineyard located in Gratallops. This vineyard is planted on crushed licorella soils, it is managed organically, tilled with mules and respecting the vineyard and its surroundings to the fullest.

The harvest is carried out manually and the grapes are transported to the winery in small boxes. Once they arrive, they go through a spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts. After the fermentation, they rest for 20 months in 300-litre second- and third-use oak barrels.

 

Only 1800 bottles of which is undoubtedly one of the best vintages of La Vinya del Vuit.

The finish is enduring, extensive, and exudes sophistication.

On the palate, it boasts superb concentration and balance. A refined, vibrant, and distinctly mineral wine that articulates itself with great finesse.
2013 The 2013 vintage has been one of the excellent vintages of the last few years in Priorat, this is evident in the fragrance that this wine has achieved. The Carignan from Gratallops has been able to provide a concentrated and rustic profile that everyone loves. They have turned this vintage into one of the best since the creation of this interesting project.
