Description
The red wine Daterra Azos do Pobo Soutipedre is so called because it comes from the plot of the same name, where the vineyards grow on clayey soil with abundant slate and schist.
That is why this wine acquires a touch of clayey flavour. In addition, it has a red fruit flavour and is made from a variety of high quality grapes such as Mencía, Mouratón, Garnacha tintorera and Merenzao, among other grape varieties.
Elaboration
The whole process of cultivation of the vines is carried out according to the system of permaculture and heroic agriculture. The grapes are harvested by hand and only 60% of the grapes are destemmed, while the remaining grapes are bunched with the whole cluster and crushed.
The maceration process takes 18 days, resulting in a natural fermentation with indigenous yeast and a minimum of sulphite is added. It is also aged for 11 months in French oak barrels and finally bottled without fining or filtering. No other additives are added, resulting in a rustic but fluid and expressive wine.
Taste
It is a fairly acidic, dense and structured dry red wine with a grippy mouthfeel and a hint of red berries. It is a biodynamic wine that tastes very deep and has a herbaceous aroma, as well as aromatic flowers.
