WINE DESCRIPTION

Bàrbara Forés Negre is a red wine produced by Bàrbara Forés winery in the Terra Alta appellation of Catalonia, Spain. The wine is made from a blend of Grenache, Carignan and Syrah grapes grown in the winery's vineyards, which are situated at high altitudes and benefit from a Mediterranean climate. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in small oak barrels. The resulting wine is full-bodied and complex, with notes of dark fruit, spices, and a hint of oak. Bàrbara Forés Negre is a great example of the high-quality wines that can be produced in the Terra Alta region.
