We want a fresh and pleasant wine with character and personality.

Vineyards and winemaking:

Old vineyards cultivated and located in Batea, a municipality in Terra Alta, in the province of Tarragona. Batea has strong temperature variations with cold winters and hot, dry summers. The little rain and low production yield very special grapes with excellent ripening. The soils are generally calcareous, loamy-clayey with very low fertility. Once harvested, the grapes are destemmed and stored in stainless steel tanks to begin maceration. The duration is 7 days at a temperature of between 22 and 24°C. Once maceration is complete, the grapes are pressed, separating the low-pressure wine from the high-pressure wine called “press wine”, which is not intended to make Manyol wine. Once fermentation is complete, the lees are removed once a week to obtain softness and fat. The blend is from the Grenache Negra and Syrah varieties. The aging period is 5 months.
