'Grimalt-Caballero' Callet 2016

2010 was the first release of this wine, blended from the Strummer and Bahaus fermentations. 90% Callet and 10% Fogoneu, it’s named after the two owners of 4 Kilos and is based on the oldest Callet. Hand-selected berries get open-top barrel fermentation with stems, 20 days maceration between 20-30 degrees, aged 14 months in 600 litre French oak. Blended from the 50 year old Vinya Petita (0.34 ha) and Vinya Ermassos (0.6 ha).

Has a typical scrubby and saline nose and a mouth marked by the perfume and texture of pure red soil energy. It’s a testimony to live, healthy soils. Earthy vitality mingles with salted licorice, sea vegetable, red lavender and extremely gentle skinsy fruit. The palate has incredible poise, light, fresh and energetic, replete with the vibrations of the soil – chalk, stone, sand and tough red clay.
