NEGRE ÀTICA 2007
Exceptional varietal wine fruit of the cultivation "of a single parcel” of Pinot Noir, planted in 1978 in our state Can Campmany, in a single clay lime soil very poor. This wine is soft but structured, where you can find are all the fruitiness of this noble variety. Its aging in oak barrels is less than one year, to give hints of wood and refine it. It is ideal to accompany soft meat dishes and stews and roasts.
