2015 was the first harvest of Lo Grau de l'Inquisidor. The objective was to produce a serious wine with the power and depth of flavor of an aged, but also with the freshness that characterizes the wines of the area. The grapes originate from a reliable producer, whose vines, are next to our vineyard Lo Grau of the Inquisitor.
ELABORATION
The Syrah is collected by hand and separately from the Garnacha peluda. Skidding and treading followed by fermentation in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature between 23-26 ° C with daily pigeage. Malolactic fermentation and aging for 10 months is carried out in 300 liter barrels of French origin. The hairy Garnacha is treated in the same way, the only difference being that it ages in 500 liter barrels. The production is 1,200 bottles.
VITICULTURE & VINEYARDS
The strains, 35, are planted at 380 meters above sea level. The soils here are diverse, most of them with surface clay of great iron content. The constant breeze makes them one of the freshest vineyards in Terra Alta.
VARIETATS: Syrah 90% - Garnacha Peluda 10%
D.O. Terra Alta

At Herència Altés we are yesterday's footprint in our gaze towards tomorrow.
We are land, landscape, culture, history and innovation.
The vineyard, cultivated in an ecological way and the wine in its maximum expression, are protectors of our landscape and guardians of our biodiversity. In the winery, we have an environmental project, which protects the flora and fauna indigenous of our environment.
At home, we follow a philosophy of minimal intervention, we respect the wines to maintain the essence of the fruit and thus achieve a perfect harmony between the hand of man and what the earth gives us.
Our aging room is totally underground, to have the perfect temperature and humidity throughout the year in a sustainable way. We work with large oak foudres, of 5000 and 2500 liters, with the philosophy of making long aging, but with the minimum impact of the wood.
Fresh, serene, polished and friendly wines.
