Winemaker Notes
"(60% tintorera, 30% monastrell and 10% cabernet sauvignon) Opaque ruby. High-pitched cherry and dark berry aromas are complicated by smoky bacon, rose oil, anise and minerals. Fresh and juicy, offering sweet raspberry and boysenberry flavors along with a bright mineral undertone. Finishes fresh, clean and precise, with very good persistence This wine, which saw no oak, was made by Ester Nin, who is the cellarmaster at Clos Erasmus. Great value."

Ester Nin Llort started her career in 2004 at Almanseñas in the La Mancha appellation of Almansa. There, together with Pep Aguilar and Patri Morillo, both oenologists from the Priorat, she takes charge of the viticulture and oenology for the estate where three wines are made from Garnacha Tintorera and Monastrell.
The estate Venta La Vega (La Vega Inn) is on the "Royal Way" from Madrid to Valencia & Alicante, where an inn once stood and welcomed travelers’' tales. The vineyard fields are scattered with ancient rainwater troughs, pine trees and oak trees which abruptly meet with the cornfields on the Almansa plateau.
