Taste
A dance of flavors. Dominated by black fruit, with hints of blackberry, combined with a citrusy touch of orange peel and soft plum accents. Its vitality is undeniable, with a tension evoking the freshness of stone and the distinctive trace of pencil lead. At the same time, it is delicately full-bodied, with tannins that, despite their maturity, play on the palate with surprising freshness. The wine is undeniably luscious, inviting another sip, and leaves a lingering presence on the palate.
Smell
Fresh fruit, cherry, tart red fruit, aniseed and balsamic notes, a touch of citrus, fresh and vegetal.

This track has a contagious energy that matches the vitality of Coca i Fitó NU. The lightness and joy of the melody remind us of the fresh tart red fruit in the wine, while the depth of the vocalist’s voice resonates with the richer, more luscious notes of the Red Grenache.
