WINE DESCRIPTION
Dimoni Vermell which means "The Red Devil" in Catalan is made by Ferré I Catasús in the town of La Granada in the Alt Penedes sub-region of Catalonia. This is a powerful red blend produced from Grenache, Tempranillo, Syrah and Samsó (Catalan for Carignan). The grapes for this wine comes from organically-certified, old vines that yield smaller, more concentrated berries creating intense, age-worthy wines. The wine is fermented and matured in neutral vessels prior to being bottled.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Ferré I Catasús Dimoni Vermell has a deep ruby color with aromas of strawberry, blackberry, and cherry.These fruit notes are accompanied by hints of dried herbs like sage and tarragon as well as subtle twist of licorice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and juicy with vibrant acidity and chalky tannins that frame the dark fruits, spice, and herbs. The wine is well-balanced and has a pleasant lingering finish marked by earthy and savory undertones.
