Cesa Vicent 'Lo Piot' - Priorat

This 2018 wine hails from Priorat, Spain. Cesca Vicent, a special certified - organic winery in the heart of Priorat, is owned and managed by Francesca Vicent, a 5th - generation female winemaker. Her family has been growing grapes here since the 16th century. With just over 13 hectares of land, most of her vines were planted in the early 1990s. This red wine is a blend of red varietals from a single estate of 30 - year - old vines. It's aged for 12 months in French oak barrels and kept in the cellar until it hits the market. It has medium tannins and flavors of blackberry, cocoa, herbs, and spice. It pairs perfectly with rich meats like lamb and venison.

To enjoy this wine, just open the bottle and let it breathe for about 30 minutes before pouring. You can serve it at a slightly cool temperature, around 60 - 64°F. When pairing it with food, go for rich meats such as lamb and venison as they complement the wine's flavors well. Store the unopened bottle in a cool, dark place. Once opened, make sure to re - cork it tightly and keep it in the fridge. Try to finish it within 2 - 3 days to enjoy its best taste.
