Partida Creus TN Tinto Natural 2021

MYR 220.00

Type: Light Red Wine (Natural / Organic / Minimal Intervention)

Region: Catalunya (Baix Penedès), Spain

Grapes: Tempranillo, Bobal, Sumoll

Alcohol ABV: 11%

Tasting Profile and Key Notes

Aroma:
A vibrant and expressive nose of wild strawberry, sour cherry, raspberry, and cranberry, layered with earthy notes of forest floor, mushroom, dried herbs, and Mediterranean scrub. Subtle aromas of smoke, pepper, anise, and wild fermentation complexity add depth, creating a raw yet elegant expression of traditional Catalan red varieties.

Palate:
Light-bodied, juicy, and energetic with crunchy red fruits, bright acidity, and fine-grained tannins. Flavours of cherry, raspberry, plum, and pomegranate are balanced by savoury herbal notes, gentle spice, and a mineral backbone. The finish is fresh, slightly earthy, and highly drinkable, with the vibrant acidity making it an excellent candidate for serving slightly chilled.

Winemaking

The grapes are hand-harvested from organically farmed old vineyards and fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts without temperature control or added commercial inputs. Each variety is vinified with minimal extraction to preserve freshness and purity, followed by ageing in stainless steel tanks and/or neutral vessels. The wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulphur, reflecting Partida Creus’ natural winemaking philosophy and emphasis on transparency.

Farming

The vineyards are located around Bonastre in Tarragona, Catalunya, where old vines grow on calcareous clay soils influenced by the Mediterranean climate. Partida Creus focuses on organic and sustainable farming practices, avoiding chemical treatments and working to preserve old indigenous grape varieties that are deeply connected to the local terroir.
