Sinols Coromina 2004
SINOLS: Name of a lineage of Norman origin dating back to the 10th century. It defines the mountains of Roses that buttress the Cap de Creus massif, from which the vines that give this wine its character can be descried.
Production: Carefully-selected grapes hand-picked at the moment of optimal phenolic ripeness in our oldest vineyards of Carinyena (50%) and Garnatxa (50%), the indigenous varieties of the Empordà. Destalked and devatted by 20%. Pre-maceration at low temperature for three days. 30 days' maceration-fermentation at a temperature not exceeding 28 ºC, with regular pumping-over and delestage. Malolactic fermentation and ripening in tanks with micro-oxygenation, followed by ageing in the bottle.
Tasting note : Cherry red colour. Distinctive, powerful aroma with notes of forest vegetation with mineral and balsamic nuances. In the mouth it is concentrated, intense and flavourful, with very long persistence. A long, intense, flavourful aftertaste. In a word, different.
Gastronomy : Ideal accompaniment for meat dishes, roasts, game, sea urchins, and cured and semi-cured cheeses. It is also an invitation to discover interesting new combinations with the immense variety of dishes of Mediterranean cuisine. |
