La Comarcal 2019 Carmen
La Comarcal 2019 Carmen
Carmen is La Comarcal's limited, flagship red, produced with organically-farmed 50% Bobal and 50% Garnacha. The Bobal comes from Paraje Tolluelos, a two-hectare plot of bush-trained Bobal planted in 1965 at 650m and one hectare of garnacha, near the village of Venta del Moro. After a rigorous selection in the vineyard, each variety is hand-harvested separately. 50% of the grapes are destemmed, and 50% are fermented as full clusters with indigenous yeasts. Bunches are then pressed, and alcoholic and malolactic fermentations finish in a 1700L cement egg, followed by 12 months of aging in concrete and bottling.
The wine is savory and Mediterranean in character with round, fine tannins and an elegant, powerful palate. Crisp red fruits and Mediterranean herbs make this an elegant wine that goes perfectly with traditional paella and grilled meats.
