Description
Gratavinum was established in 2003 when the owners of Parés Baltà – brothers Joan and Josep Cusiné and their winemaking wives MªElena Jiménez and Marta Casas – decided to invest in the wild Priorat landscape. The estate, which takes its name from the contraction of Gratallops (the name of the village where the winery is located) and Vinum (Latin for wine), is run by the Cusiné family and winemaker Jordi Fernandez. Working with old vines of indigenous grapes as well as newcomer varietals, they produce powerful, structured wines with the distinctive mineral character of Priorat.
Gratavinum Silvestris is a natural wine produced from only fermented grape juice with the grapes wildest yeasts, and without any additional substance. Originated in organic vineyards that have never received any chemical substances. Dark garnet colour with violet hints, its intense aromas are dominated by fruity notes of ripe red and black fruits with a light tannic background of the barrels. The flavours combining ripe fruit with balanced acidity and volume are concentrated and intense with a long and lingering finish to complete the experience. This wine has the potential to age further.
This wine is exceptionally good with game, red meat and any dish with a rich sauce.
