This vintage it is an 85% blend of Monastrell & Garnacha, with 15% Syrah to spice things up. Whole clusters in to stainless steel tanks for pigéage and fermentation with native yeasts. Ages a little more than 6 months on lees before bottling - unfined, unfiltered, and zero SO2. Soft and so easy going. Similar in medium-body and style to "Les Foes." Dark berries and a little funky! Chillable for sure.
Most of Roger's entire production comes from about 3 hectares of vines he planted in 2009 making 2014 his first vintage. The soils in the region are composed mostly of clay loam and in certain areas there's a calcareous rock layer called tapas giving the wine chalky texture and minerality. All of his vineyards are farmed organically and treated with biodynamic preparations following the lunar calendar. Everything is hand harvested. Also, he doesn't even own a de-stemmer, so everything is done whole bunches with a lot of pigéage by foot.
