Red WineThis incredible value wine is produced by the Cellers Unio co-operative in Terra Alta, west of the Catalonia coastline. Garnacha thrives in these hot conditions, while the local winds blow through the vineyard, helping to temper the heat and keep the vines clean.
The wine opens in the glass with expressive aromas of flowers and red fruits with some really interesting balsamic notes. The palate is ripe, fresh and fruity with a touch of sweetness.
Brilliant Grenache for the money.
White WineThe wines of Clos Dalian are handcrafted by one of Spain’s greatest co-ops. Since 1942, the Cellers Unio have continued a 200-year-old winemaking tradition in Catalonia and the surrounding regions.
This white Grenache/Garnacha is bright white with golden hue. Aromas of ripe white fruit and minerals rise from the glass. The palate is surprising for this price – creamy, fleshy, fresh and very seductive in the mouth. Its mid-palate is quite long and silky. This is an all-round good drinking wine that surprises you with its flavour, texture and food-friendly nature. Great value.
White WineThis wine is a ‘Vi de Vila’ – made from grapes harvested from a single village (in this case 40-year-old PX vines from the village of Poboleda). The wine is fermented in modern egg-shaped polypropylene tanks to enable controlled micro-oxygenation. It is then aged on the lees for 3 months before being bottled unoaked.
One of only 2 Spanish regions awarded DOQ status (the other is Rioja), Priorat is known for the quality of its wines from rocky, silica slate (Llicorella) soils. The high diurnal range in Priorat contributes to producing fresh, aromatic wines.
Bright golden in colour. Complex aromatics with hints of white fruits, blossom and peach. The palate is creamy and tropical, with a long finish. Serve chilled with smoked salmon, grilled seafood and creamy cheese.
