The wine

This is a special wine dedicated by Manuel Raventós to his mother, Isabel Negra, a key figure in the winery's history. It is made using fruit from Cabernet Sauvignon vines more than 30 years old, with the addition of 10% Monastrell grapes that supply further complexity and nuances, creating a wine which is then carefully aged to provide harmony between grapes and oak.

A very dark cherry colour, the nose exudes aromas of well-ripened fruit and oak-ageing notes. Persistent and pleasantly flavoursome on the palate, it shows good acidity and mature tannins.

Aged for 12 months in French oak barrels and, subsequent to blending and bottling, it remains for a further 12 months maturing in cellar.
