Masroig Sola Fred Tinto 2021, Spain
APPELLATION: Montsant
BLEND: Carignan
WINEMAKER: Carles Escolar
VINEYARD:
Celler et Masroig is home to one of Spain's most highly regarded cooperatives and
Sola Fred is one of the fruits of their labours. All the grapes that go into Sola Fred are
grown around the winery. Altitude ranges from 100 to 350 metres and soils are red
clay and limestone. The climate is Mediterranean with continental influences. The
dryness of summer, the poor fertility of the terrain, the mountainous landscape and
the Mediterranean climate are all key influences.
VITICULTURE:
Viticulture is traditional. All grapes are hand-harvested into small crates.
WINEMAKING:
Fermentation takes place in temperature controlled, stainless steel tanks.
TASTING NOTES:
An excellent nose of violets, black cherry, and earthy notes. Since it is unoaked this wine is all about the primary fruit flavours. Great slightly chilled in summer too. Pair with burgers and pasta dishes
