2533 – RED WINE BUFARUT – D.O. EMPORDÀ

Characteristics: Like Bufarut, the vineyards that give essence to this Emporda wine rise with strength. Located in the municipality of Rabós and Vilamaniscle, the vineyards rise victoriously against the adversities of the territory. The cold and turbulent Tramuntana air and the Llicorella soil (slate soil) are their companions, and together they give rise to a very powerful Bufarut.

Cellar: Oliveda Cellar of Capmany

Varieties: 90% Grenache and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon

Elaboration: Harvest at the optimum point of maturation looking for the perfect balance. Fermentations take place in stainless steel tanks, separated by varietal, at a controlled temperature.
