La Roca de l''Abellar, an exceptional red wine from the Denominación de Origen Calificada (DOQ) Priorat in Spain, pays tribute to the singular essence of the Garnacha Negra grape. This wine, made exclusively from this grape variety, offers a sensory experience that captures the authenticity and elegance of the Priorat terroir.
"The name refers to an ancient stone, tall and thick, located in Les Solanes, near the village of Porrera."
Stemming from a single plot of Grenache, this single vineyard is located in Porrera, outside the municipality of Torroja. The soil is dominated by sandstone, interspersed with slate, creating the perfect conditions for growing Garnacha Negra. The vines, thirty years old, are cultivated following sustainable agricultural practices, with the organic certification process underway.
The production of La Roca de l''Abellar reflects a commitment to quality and the pure expression of Garnacha Negra. Spontaneous fermentation takes place in small 500-litre food-grade plastic tanks, with continuous maceration for eight to fourteen days. The must is then pressed to complete the fermentation. The wine ages gracefully in 1,100-litre terracotta amphorae for fourteen months, allowing the flavours to integrate and evolve harmoniously.
