Tasting Notes
Wine Advocate 94
I found complexity, elegance, depth and personality in the 2022 La Serra Negre, a blend of 80% Cariñena and 20% Garnacha from old vines on limestone soils. It fermented in open-top 500-liter barrels with 30% full clusters and indigenous yeasts. The careful élevage in oak didn’t leave aromas or flavors of oak in the wine. The nose is perfumed, with intense aromas of violets, dark cherries, spice, some meaty notes and a smoky twist. It has a moderate 13.5% alcohol and a pH of 3.3 denoting very good freshness, a medium-bodied palate with very fine tannins and great balance. Very tasty. 1,643 bottles were filled in March 2024.
