Tasting
Appearance
Very peculiar and attractive colour of wood with a reddish brown.
Nose
Hints of aniseed and menthol. Dried fruit: figs, orange peel. Quince. Floral notes. Very robust and complex.
Mouthfeel
Pleasant and unctuous, balanced mouth, and with volume. Fresh and fruity. Light toasted notes. Lingering and delicate.
General
Natural dessert wine made from specially selected grapes from very old and low-yielding vines. A burst of sensations that evolve in the glass: dried fruit, light toasted notes, aniseed notes. Intense, lingering and delicate.
Serving temperature
12 degrees
Pairing Notes
Ideal for aperitifs, foie gras, soft cheeses and blue cheeses, confit poultry, white and red meats with plum and pine nut sauce, citrus cakes, dark chocolate.
Occasion
But let's get straight to the point: if you like dark chocolate, you simply have to pair it with this Garnacha Blanca dessert wine. Immense gourmet pleasure. Seriously. But as we were saying, that's not all. Experiment with soft or blue cheeses, or with roast beef with a little citrus sauce on top. Keep tissues close by as you'll shed a tear or two. It's also important to respect the recommended temperature, as this will be the best way to Tastinge it in optimal conditions.
In the vineyard
Made with grapes from old vines that are cut back during the very dry and hot summers. Dry clay soil with a good lime content. Poor in organic matter but well drained.
In the winery
About 50 days of extended maceration at room temperature in oak barrels. The fermentation is stopped with wine alcohol. Soft pressing and subsequent ageing for at least one years in French oak barrels with soleras over fifty years old.
Cellar
Cooperativa De Gandesa
On 19 February 1919, José Maria Sierras, founder and first chairman of the cooperative, and Jaume Fontanet, member of the board, commissioned the architect César Martinell, a disciple of the great architects Josep Puig i Cadafalch and Antoni Gaudi, to construct the Bodega Cooperativa de Gandesa, then called the Gandesa Agricultural Cooperation Union.
Do Terra Alta
The so-called Customs of Orta (1296) and Miravet (1319) already regulated the sale of wine from the region. But it wasn't until the late nineteenth century that winegrowing became widespread. With the phylloxera plague, the demand from producers for DO Terra Alta [1] grapes increased, first from the French and then from the neighbouring regions that today are DO Tarragona and DOQ Priorat. In the early twentieth century, the organisation of cooperatives was a revolution.
