DESCRIPTION
LAUS vineyards are scattered in different areas of Somontano, at an altitude that ranges from 350 to 400 meters above sea level.
The different soil types give the grapes special qualities to achieve white, rosé, and red wines with unique character. It is an area of stony, chalky soils with loamy texture and the occasional presence of gypsum. This kind of soil is known for its low fertility levels.
The climate of the area is continental Mediterranean, with low annual rainfall (400 mm). Because of this, a small amount of controlled irrigation guarantees grape quality even in the driest summers and reduces variations between vintages.
The combination of poor soils and the warm, dry climate of southern Somontano allows the grapes to ripen fully and produces limited yields of excellent health.
Production: 40.000
TASTING NOTES
Red wine with an intense ruby colour, and touches of red and garnet.
On the nose it is intense, the aromas of the oak barrel are highlighted (toasted wood, smoke, pastries, spices, and tar-like hints), and well-integrated with ripe fruit and raspberry jam aromas.
Mouth-filling, voluminous palate. The fruity flavors of the grapes blend well with those of the barrel, giving way to hints of chocolate, leather, spices, and ripe fruit.
