Description

his wine is made exclusively from Cariñena grapes coming from 80 years old vines in a poor, rocky and calcareous soil called “tapàs blanc”, from which Romans extracted stones for their buildings, hence where its name comes from. Thanks to soil’s austerity, carinyena offers a unique grape, with a high concentration, rich in nuances and complexity.

Aromas display a series of black fruit and forest berries, along with floral aromas. All of the wine’s potential is displayed on the palate, with a smooth and warm entry, full-bodied and complex and a long spicy finish.

Edetaria

Joan Àngel Lliberia spent his childhood amongst vineyards, his undying passion for wine called him back to his origins to set up Edetària, in Terra Alta DO in the extreme south of Catalunya. Named after the ‘Via Edetana’, the old Roman trade route from Torotosa to Zaragoza that passed through the estate. Increasingly the region is being recognised for its potential to produce ‘Garnatxa’-based wines of equal quality to its more famous neighbours in the north.

Catalunya

Catalunya, located in northeastern Spain, is a prominent and diverse wine region known for its rich history and wide range of high-quality wines. The region enjoys a Mediterranean climate with warm, dry summers and mild winters, ideal for viticulture. Catalunya is renowned for its exceptional Cava, a sparkling wine produced mainly in the Penedès region, known for its freshness and complexity and the area also excels in producing robust reds from varieties such as Tempranillo, Garnacha, and Cariñena, which offer rich fruit flavours and well-structured profiles. White wines, including those from the Xarel·lo and Macabeo grapes, are celebrated for their crispness and aromatic qualities.
