2021 LLOPS GARNACHA NEGRA

EL SOLÀ D'ARES
El Solà d’Ares produces various fermented products such as wines, garnacha beer, and kombucha (fermented tea), complemented by a technical experience that explores new concepts and the personality that can be conveyed in a product crafted with enthusiasm.

ESTATE
Vines cultivated on steep slopes, on slate and sandstone soils, in the municipality of Torroja del Priorat.
The climate is semi-arid Mediterranean continental, where austere conditions drive the plant to express the wine’s characteristics to the extreme.
