Following years of persistence and study, Andy and Ali’s winemaking dreams materialized in the form of Celler Alimara in Terra Alta, Catalonia. The vineyards are located at Mas de Cabrera, near Gandesa, 400m above sea level on chalk and clay soils. The hot and dry summers are influenced by two prevailing winds: the Cierzo blowing from the interior and the Garbí bringing more humid air from the Mediterranean.
Celler Alimara adopts the “Lutte Raisonée” philosophy in the vineyard meaning that organic/biodynamic principles are followed unless extreme circumstances dictate the need for pesticides or other chemicals. Apart from ploughing, all work in the vineyard is done by hand.
Llumí Negre 2020 is a blend of Grenache (47%), Carignan (47%) and Hairy Grenache (6%). This is a fruit-forward wine rich with dark bramble, plum and spice. The persistent fruit overlaid by coffee and burnt caramel notes is complimented by a subtle acidity and juicy tannins.
A perfect barbecue beverage that will have you reaching for another glass.
