Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Luis Gutiérrez
The red 2019 Camí Pesseroles comes from a co-plantation of Garnacha and Cariñena planted in 1939. Whole clusters were foot trodden and fermented with indigenous yeasts for almost three weeks in open-top 500-liter chestnut wood barrels and an oak vat. The wine was pressed and matured in 650-liter chestnut and acacia, cherry and oak barrels. There was a heat wave, and the Cariñena was blocked. The wine has a very light color and very good tension in the palate. It's very young and elegant, and it has more of the profile of the Escurçons, which in 2019 is more concentrated than Pesseroles. 13.5% alcohol, very good freshness... Delicate like no other vintage. Surprising. 1,200 bottles produced.
About the Producer
We are always looking for new points of view, with a culture based on balance, sustainability and harmony with nature. We are committed to tradition, to the environment and to people. We recover some varieties and reinvent some processes and materials under the principles of agroecology and minimum intervention with the maximum respect for the people who work on it. We stand up for an ecofeminist and cross-cutting view of the world. We work the crops in an environmentally friendly way, being as respectful as possible with the processes. We grow leguminous plants, and we recover wild varieties of flowers and shrubs. We base on the lunar calendar in order to optimise the natural treatments that we use in the vineyard, such as compost and herbal infusions. Small gestures to obtain wines which are faithful to their plot by actively contributing to the balance of our farming systems
