Herencia Altes Garnatxa Negra Rose
Herencia Altes was founded in 2010 by Nuria Altes and her partner Rafael de Haan in Terra Alta, Catalonia. This project was born from a dream for Nuria to one day do something special on the land on which she grew up.
This is a family-owned winery producing fresh, elegant, organic wines. They cultivate 50 hectares of vines at 420 to 500 metres above sea level. The focus is on indigenous grape varieties, especially Garnatxa. Terra Alta is a region of extremes; cold winters and hot, dry summers.
Winemaking at Herencia Altes is minimal intervention. Spontaneously fermenting grapes with indigenous yeasts in a series of micro-vinifications in small tanks. Using only free-run juice for the whites and roses, and whole bunches for the reds.
Preferring concrete tanks for both fermentation and maturation so as to get the benefits of micro-oxygenation without imparting secondary aromas and flavours. If they use wood, large, old vessels are preferred for the same reason.
- Herencia Altes Garnatxa Negra Rose is a bright and delicate pale salmon colour
- A graceful nose of fresh red berries and forest fruit
- A fresh and vibrant palate of strawberry and raspberry fruit
- A that pairs well with salads and light tapas
