Marco Abella Roca Roja 2018

14.5% abv

Vol- 75cl

This 100% garnacha wine is created at the highest elevation (650-700 metres) of our estate vineyard named “La Mallola” where the “Llevant” wind of the Mediterranean see leaves the morning dew. Red slate rock (Roca Roja) of la Mallola plot contrasts with the grey slate soil. The red rock inspired mystical and fantastic legends. Its soil which is rich in slate provides mineral elements to a unique, complex and fresh wine. It is aged in French oak barrels for 18 months.

The Marco family trace their history in the Priorat town of Porrera to the first Catalunyan census of 1497. After a hiatus instigated by the Phylloxera outbreak and time spent in Barcelona, the family returned to the tenure of their retained lands in 1898 and eventually the modern winery and Bodega were created a century later. Their four separate terraced vineyard plots range in altitude from 200 to 700m on the steep Mediterranean influenced hillsides of the region. The local licorella slate soils are farmed biodynamically and the wines are made in their state of the art gravity fed winery, built in 2001 into the hillside.
