Aires de Garbet

You are here

The most elegant expression of an extreme estate, caressed by the Mediterranean and whipped by the tramontane wind.

Twelve hectares open to the sea, like a Roman amphitheatre, with slate soils and steep slopes beside the Mediterranean, vines combed by the tramontane that shape a fascinating landscape, home to Perelada’s iconic wines, where Finca Garbet gives birth to a superlative and elegant Garnacha, the result of low yields, rigorous selection, and meticulous ageing, bringing complexity without losing the essence of the place: Aires de Garbet.

Designation of origin: 
Empordà
Varietals: 
Garnacha (100%).
Ageing: 
15 months in second use Bordelaise-sized French barrels of Tronçais oak of 300 liters, rest in bottle.
Tasting note: 
Deep cherry-red color with violet tones. It is a wine with a great aromatic variety that reminds us to the Mediterranean vineyard where it comes from: aromatic herbs, red fruits and a balsamic background. In the mouth it is fresh, intense and well balanced. It presents a clear varietal personality, with mature and enveloping tannins and a silky sensation. It is an elegant wine, with a long aftertaste and offers a huge potential for ageing.
Finca: 
Garbet. Twelve hectares on the shore of the Mediterranean, on a mountainous slopy terrain where terrace farming is necessary.
