Negre 1,5 l Magnum - Binigrau

The powerful Negre 2016 1.5 l Magnum from the house of Binigrau flows into the glass with a dense purple-red color. At the rims, this Spanish red also shows a transition into garnet red. After the first swirl, this red wine reveals a high density and richness, which can be seen in the stained “church windows” on the glass. This Spanish cuvée flatters the nose in the glass with wonderfully complex notes of plums. In addition, there are hints of tobacco, cinnamon and black cherry.

This Spanish wine delights with its elegantly dry taste profile. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. This is a true quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities and thus, despite all its dryness, this Spaniard enchants with the finest balance. Aroma does not necessarily need a lot of sugar. Powerful and complex, this full-bodied red wine presents itself on the palate. On the finish, this very age-worthy red wine from the Balearic wine-growing region finally impresses with considerable length. Once again, hints of plum appear.

Vinification of the Negre 2016 1.5 l Magnum by Binigrau

The foundation for the powerful Negre 2016 1.5 l Magnum from the Balearic Islands is grapes from the Callet, Manto Negro and Merlot varieties. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are brought to the winery without delay. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in small wooden barrels at controlled temperatures. After fermentation is complete, the powerful Negre 2016 1.5 l Magnum is aged for another 16 months in French oak barrels.
