The 1903 Centennial Garnacha 2018 comes from their oldest Garnacha vines in the Partida de Coma de Casses in Poboleda, 115-year-old plants on a slope of llicorella shale that yield no more than 300 grams of grapes per plant. The destemmed grapes were sorted twice and fermented in stainless steel with neutral yeasts. The wine matured for 16 months in brand new French barriques and was bottled unrefined and unfiltered in 272 numbered bottles in March 2019. It is a dark and concentrated style of Garnacha. There are plenty of tannins that will soften with time.
The 1903 Centennial Garnacha 2018 reveals a dense, purple-red color. This red wine from Mas Doix is perfect for all wine connoisseurs who like as little sweetness as possible in wine. In doing so, however, it is never sparse or brittle, as you can naturally expect in a wine.
In the nose spicy with eucalyptus, cedar, glycerin and red fruits.
On the palate, this powerful red wine is characterized by an extremely massive and dense texture. With moderate fruit acidity, the 1903 Garnacha Centenaria flatters with a pleasant mouthfeel without sacrificing juicy vibrancy. The finish of this red wine from the wine-growing region of Catalonia, ultimately inspires with an extraordinary aftertaste.
Pairs perfectly with:
Lovely pairing with spicy food, game and stews
