Ferrer Bobet Seleccio Especial 2016

Kpo says: One of the most impressive wines from Spain!!!! Dense, concentrated but very balanced! A DAZZLING wine!

The grapes are grown on century-old vines on steep slopes, called “costers” in Priorat.
The soil is typical for this denomination, very sought after. Slate soil, called “licorella” that contributes to the minerality and special character of the wine.
The vines are located in one of the highest and freshest areas in the denomination which guarantees the perfect ripening of the grapes. Additionally, there is a contrast in temperatures between the day and night which helps preserve aromas and acidity.

Ferrer Bobet do not use any type of insecticide or fungicide or herbicide, showing an enormous respect for the land.
The harvest is done by hand, and the grapes are transported to the winery in small 10kg crates. The grapes pass through a selection table twice where there is a strict selection from grape to grape.

The fermentation is done in 15 and 30 hl wooden and stainless steel deposits. Ferrer Bobet Vinyes Velles undergoes an aging for 15 months in lightly medium toasted and fine grain French oak barrels.
The wine is not filtered or clarified before it is bottled.
Before it is released onto the market, it rests for a minimum of 11 months in the bottle. 94 pts Wine Spectator 93 pts Decanter 95 pts Wine Advocate Drink now – 2035+
