Cara Nord Negre is a high-mountain Wine, from vineyards growing on poor slate, stony and clay-calcareous soils, located at 800 meters above sea level, on the north face of La Sierra de Prades, in a privileged and magical setting, surrounded by high mountains and forest in the Natural Park of Prades and the Natural Park of Poblet. The vines here are exposed to extreme temperature contrasts and grow under difficult conditions, which creates unusual wines as the grapes grown at high altitudes are noted for their higher natural acidity content, which benefits the production of a wine of much higher quality that exhibits an amazing depth, concentration, and complexity, qualities that contribute to their unique personality and give it a remarkable capacity for ageing.

Production: 

Fermentation at 24 ºC in stainless steel vats, followed by 6 months of aging in French oak barrels.

Tasting Notes: 

Elegant nose of ripe black fruits combined with mineral and balsamic notes. Soft with good fruit weight on the palate, smoke oak and spice notes with fine and elegant tannins, finishing long and full.
