Aroa Bodegas Le Naturel

Le Naturel tinto is made from 95% Grenache and 5% Merlot, from vines that have never been treated with synthetic chemical products. The vineyard, planted on organically farmed calcareous clay soils, sits close to the Urbasa and Andía mountains. The fruit is manually harvested typically in the middle of October. At the winery the grapes are hand sorted, and then undergo a short maceration of only 5 days with minimal intervention. Glowing cerise in color, one could confuse it for Beaujolais. On the nose you pick up youthful aromas of licorice and fresh cut violets. The palate is light and refreshing with flavours of cherry and cardamom. With such short time spent on skins, the body has very delicate tannins and structure.
