Scala Dei Heretge red wine
Heretge is a monovarietal from Cariñena that breaks with it "dogma" followed so far by Cellers Scala Dei, where Garnacha has always been the hallmark. This is, well, a transgressive bet, a "heresy" and a tribute to ancestral viticulturetral of the area. This limited edition of about 3.000 Bottles have been made by hand with grapes from vines of more than 80 three years old "costers" different: Towards the Sierra, Parts of Ase y La Font, thus faithfully reflecting the typicality and unique character of the area.Wine making is similar to what we do in Cellers Scala Dei with our Grenache from historic vineyards. Basically the idea is not to intervene so that what the wine shows is the peculiarity of the terroir that marks so much the slate wines of Priorat. So, fermentation took place in open cement tanks, alternating punching and pumping over depending on the daily tasting. Fermented with a 30% of the scrape, the one that corresponds to one of the three "costers", where we get to harvest with a mature stalk. He was 22 days in contact with the skins from vatting to pressing. Fermentation takes place with native yeasts.
