Winemaking

Hand-harvested and grape-by-grape selection at the sorting table. Cold fermentation and maceration for 6 days, followed by aging in second and third-year French oak barrels. Light filtration before bottling.

Tasting note

The wine has a cherry red color with pleasant aromas of ripe fruit, spices, creamy oak, toasty notes, and a hint of cocoa. On the palate, it is very flavorful, with hints of ripe fruit and good acidity.

Food pairing

Mediterranean-style red wine. Perfect with lamb ribs, duck breast, spiced sauces or game stews. Also pairs with aged cheeses and dark chocolate desserts

Characteristics

The Les Timbes stream runs through the Can Vendrell de la Codina estate, dividing it into two groups of vineyard plots. On one side, small south-facing terraces of Grenache Noir were planted between 2001 and 2004 with selected clones that give the wine a refined and distinctive character. On the other side of the stream lies the Tempranillo vineyard of Capellades, now part of a renewed blend that brings us closer than ever to the most Mediterranean expression of our landscape.

Les Timbes

Les Vinyes

Les Timbes és el torrent que envolta la finca de Can Vendrell de la Codina, on es troba la casa pairal d’Albet i Noya i el nostre celler. Als marges d’aquest barranc, hi creixen unes feixes orientades al sud d’un alt valor paisatgístic, on vam plantar una garnatxa molt especial per a nosaltres.

A l’altra banda del torrent, s’estenen les vinyes d’ull de llebre, una de les varietats negres més emblemàtiques de la finca. Té un significat especial per a Albet i Noya, ja que va ser la varietat amb què vam elaborar el nostre primer vi ecològic.

Aquestes dues varietats, cultivades en un entorn marcat pel contrast entre el bosc i la vinya, donen vida a un vi que reflecteix fidelment el caràcter de la nostra terra.
