St. Antoni de Scala Dei 2012 Tinto

Garnacha grown at 600 metres of altitude on red and yellow clay soils. It is fermented in concrete vats with stems and aged in 1,400-litre foudres. Medium ruby colour. Ethereal and mineral with plenty of Mediterranean herb aromas (rosemary, thyme). Don’t expect a powerful red; this is a mineral wine that really reflects the landscape it comes from, even if there’s a slight tannic feel on the finish. Long finish. This is a good vintage indeed for Sant Antoni, better in my opinion than 2011.
