Terroir Sense Fronteres Montsant Vertebra Garnacha
The red 2022 Vèrtebra was produced with Garnacha Fina, a biotype with larger grapes and thinner skins that produce elegant wines, from the village of La Figuera de Montsant. The vines are at 600 meters above sea level on pink clay and gypsum soils. It has 14% alcohol and a pH of 3.49 with 5.4 grams of acidity. This is a little more reductive, more serious and reticent and takes time in the glass to open up. It has a pale and bright ruby color and a medium-bodied palate with certain lightness and very fine tannins. It's elegant and balanced. They think of this as their Pinot Noir. 6,600 bottles were filled in April 2023.
