Produced by the Breca winery, one of Jorge Ordóñez‘s wine brands, Brega is a first-rate Spanish red wine from DO Calatayud.
This stunning old-vines Grenache comes from two tiny mountainside vineyards composed of slate and quartzite soils. They are planted with one of the oldest Grenache clones in the world, dating back to 1900. Yields per plant are ridiculously low.
Harvested by hand during October and November, alcoholic fermentation of this red wine from Calatayud was carried out in stainless steel tanks of different sizes with indigenous yeasts.
After a short maceration, the wine completed malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels. It was subsequently aged for a period of 20 months. The first 10 months were spent in 40% new French oak barrels, and the rest in neutral 600-litre barrels.
Finally, Brega 2018 was blended, bottled, and aged for a further months before its release.
Decant this Crianza red wine a minimum of 2 hours before drinking.
