Ripe Red Berries, Cedar
Supple and fresh
Former cofounder and technician of the legendary Anima Negra, Francesc Grimalt branched out to make his own winery with friend Sergio Caballero (in a converted sheep farm). Their goal is to continue to showcase local, native varietals and to work as ecologically as possible. Ecologically, meaning in harmony with nature –somewhere in between organic and biodynamic farming. It is not uncommon to find lots of healthy vegetation in the vineyards – cherry trees smack in the middle of one vineyard, wild garlic growing in another… The vineyards and the wines benefit greatly from the iron rich red clay soils of Mallorca.
These wines are sophisticated but with a rustic soul that expresses the land and the people of Mallorca. These guys also like to have fun. The not-soserious wine label for 12 Volts changes every year, in collaboration with a different artist each time.
Ripe red berries dominate the fragrant nose, with hints of licorice and cedar. The palate is supple, balanced and fresh.
