WINE DESCRIPTION

Coca i Fitó Jaspi Negre is a blend composed of Grenache Noir, Carignan, and each of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. Grenache Noir and Carignan vines range from up to 80 years old, while the others are at least 15 years old (Syrah, CS) and 50 years old (Carignan). Following the traditional maceration, the wine matured for 3 to 4 months in French and American oak barrels, followed by a year in a cool, dark concrete tank. The grapes from the DO Montsant region come from vines planted in various types of soil, making it a representative wine of the DO Montsant.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

Coca i Fitó Jaspi Negre is a delightful red wine hailing from the Catalonia region of Spain.This wine showcases a deep, ruby color that entices the eye. On the nose, it offers a complex bouquet of ripe black fruits, such as blackberries and plums, intertwined with subtle hints of spices and earthy undertones. On the palate, Coca i Fitó Jaspi Negre presents a harmonious balance between fruitiness and structure. The flavors of dark berries continue to shine, accompanied by notes of licorice and a touch of vanilla. The tannins are well-integrated, providing a smooth and velvety mouthfeel. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of dark fruit and a touch of minerality.
