L’Estanquer White

Variety white Cariñena / Year 2020 / 75cl. / % vol. 12

This wine is named after our winery and in it we put the very best of our efforts because it represents everything we aim to be. With this wine we want to portray our personality and the overall approach to our elaborations, as well as the overall variety we use to produce it.

The grape comes from our oldest vineyard, La Sort, which is 70 years old. It is a long macerated wine, using the grapes’ own skin. It is posteriorly aged in barrels during 6 months. This confers it with a high level of complexity, consequently differentiating it from what we usually understand as a white wine.

Tasting Notes:

Visual: Amber wine with bright golden hues.
Aromas: Many notes of mature and candied fruit on the nose, along with notes of dried and toasted nuts lent by the barrel.
Palate: Fleshy wine with strong notes of candied fruit and anise seeds. This is a powerful, long and complex wine.

Pairing:

This wine, due to its characteristics, goes very well with more complex dishes than those usually recommended for a white wine. It goes very well with pasta, cannelloni, rice dishes, such as paella or risotto, and baked meats.

Recommended Temperature: Between 12 and 14°C. This white wine has the capability of aging in bottle and, consequently, of achieving greater complexity.

L’Estanquer Red

Variety Ganacha Enbolicaire / Year 2019 / 75cl. / % vol. 14

With L’Estanquer Red we want to portray what our winery is all about. It is elaborated with the Garnacha variety that grows in the 30 year old vines on our oldest vineyard, La Sort, combined with those from our younger vineyard, Els Regalls.

It is a long macerated wine, using the grapes’ own skin and fermented spontaneously with its own yeast. With this wine we extract much of the fruit’s vibrancy while making sure that its evolution in the barrel makes for a long and persistent wine.

Tasting Notes:

Visual: Medium depth, cherry red.
Aromas: Many notes of red fruit on the nose, along with herbs such as thyme, and a hint of scrub herbs with slight pepper notes.
Palate: A flavourful, amicable wine, long with a slightly sweet ending, typical of the Garnacha variety.

Pairing:

This wine has lots of personality. Therefore, it goes well with many dishes. However, it goes best with full flavoured dishes such as meat stews, red meats and saucy fish dishes. It is also an excellent companion to cured sheep’s cheese.

Recommended Temperature: between 15 and 16°C. This red wine has the capability of aging well in bottle up to 2 or 3 years after bottling.

Paraula

Variety White Garnacha / Year 2021 / 75cl. / Ecological / % vol. 12.5%

Paraula is the first white wine produced in our winery. The aim with this wine is to reflect the intensity of the Mediterranean climate and, therefore, to express our “terroir”. We put our best efforts to create a top quality wine. The grapes originate from our two youngest vineyards: Els Regalls, with calcareous soil, and La Sort, which has a higher concentration of clay.

Tasting Notes:

Visual: Bright yellow with green reflections.
Aromas: Hints of white fruit, such as pears and white flowers with a sweet ending.
Palate: Good acidity, buttery, a long wine where fruits predominate.

Pairing:

White Garnacha is a variety that provides very versatile wines, which go well with an ample variety of dishes. As any good white it goes well with fish and shellfish but it also fits well with rice dishes such as paella, risotto or with cheese, particularly soft cheese.

Recommended Temperature: between 7 and 8°C. This white wine can be kept in bottle for up to 2 years.

LO ROIG

Variety Merlot Cabernet / Year 2019 / 75cl. / % vol. 14

Lo Roig represents best our origins and our village, where our wines come from. Therefore, we attempt to elaborate a wine that expresses fully the singularity of our region, Maestrat, its landscape and climate. The grape comes from our youngest 5-year-old vineyards: Molló Blanc and Els Regalls. It is a long macerated wine, using the grapes’ own skin with the aim to maximise the grapes colour, its aromas and flavours.

Posteriorly, we age the wine in a French oak barrel between 12 and 14 months. This period in the barrel makes for very supple tannins and a balanced wine.

Tasting Notes:

Visual: Medium-high depth, brick red colour with a healthy glow.
Aromas: Many spicy notes of clove, pepper, mature fruit, along with coffee and toasted aromas coming from the barrel.
Palate: Fleshy, long wine with structure.

Pairing:

The best option are red meats: grilled meats, burgers, and light stews seasoned with herbs such as thyme or rosemary. It also goes very well with meats of small wild game such as duck and rabbit. It also pairs remarkably with cheese, ranging from gouda to brie.

L’ESTANQUER SWEET

Variety Syrah / Year 2017 / 50cl. / % vol. 17

This wine is elaborated with Syrah grapes, harvested after they overripe. We don’t add any exogenous sugar; instead we stop fermentation once the natural concentration of sugar is ideal. This wine will surprise any palates.

Tasting Notes:

Visual: Intense colour of medium-high robe.
Aromas: Overripe red fruit, cherries and morello cherries.
Palate: Very rounded and amicable on the palate. A deep wine with a sweet ending.

Pairing:

This wine is a good companion to sweet desserts but it is also a good fit for cheese and foie gras.

Recommended Temperature: between 8 and 10°C. This wine has the capability of aging well.
