The Red "Abrunet" from the Celler Frisach winery is a Spanish label that with its freshness at the finish will struggle to last more than ten minutes on the table! It is made with a blend of grapes of Garnacha Fina and Cariñena vinified using only indigenous yeasts and aged in vitrified cement. The ruby red color dresses the glass with a cloak of violet reflections while the nose is intoxicated by ripe fruit and spices. The sip is juicy, agile, tasty and mineral. 

"L'Abrunet" by Celler Frisach represents a Spanish red wine, the result of a blend of indigenous black grape varieties, distinguished by its fruity character and easy readability. This family-run production reality in Corbera d'Ebre, in southern Catalonia, consists of 20 hectares of vineyards, managed organically with respect for the health of the environment and the peculiar expression of the terroir. “Celler” is a Catalan term meaning “cellar” while “Frisach” is the surname of Francesc and Joan's great-grandfather, to whom the two owner brothers wanted to pay homage.

Celler Frisach "Abrunet" comes from a blend of Garnacha Fina (60%) and Cariñena (40%), grown organically on clay-limestone soils, at about 400 meters altitude. The Cariñena is nothing but a clone of the Sardinian grape Carignano, also widespread in southern France under the name Carignan. Once optimal ripeness is reached, the berries are hand-harvested in two different plots and then placed to ferment spontaneously in stainless steel tanks, with a few days of contact between the must and the skins. The subsequent aging phase takes place entirely in glazed concrete tanks for a period of a few months. Throughout the entire winemaking process, the mass undergoes no clarification or filtration.

In the glass, Celler Frisach "Abrunet" Negre expresses an intense ruby red color with violet reflections. Aromas of ripe fruit, sweet spices, and flowers describe the decisive and full olfactory spectrum, while the taste is fresh and juicy, with pleasant tannins and a fruity and mineral finish, of medium persistence. A bottle of great typicity that is well suited for convivial and everyday drinking.
