The 2024 Vermell has as subtle reduction that makes it more serious, but it's still juicy, fresh and fine-boned. This changed a lot when they stopped using Garnacha Tintorera in the blend; it's now 70% Mandó and 30% Arcos, with 13% alcohol, a pH of 3.4 and 5.25 grams of acidity. This is more serious, rounder than the 2023, with a different profile, a little more structured, which shows a little the character of the year. The wine has grown up. And it's a bargain.

50% Mandó, 50% Arcos. 40% whole bunch. Aged only in amphora. 40,000 bottles produced.
A fine, delicate wine with very gentle tannins, built around freshness. Notes of violets and blackberries, with light tannins that make it highly drinkable. In some ways, it recalls a cru beaujolais, though with a very clean and fresh finish.
