A.S Boires 2017 is a Spanish red wine from Penedes, in the Catalonia region.
This wine is special because the winery has taken care of the whole process in order to obtain the best wine. The grapes, Samso, Tempranillo and Black Grenache have been handpicked from vines that are 50 years old and then brought to the winery to do a second selection, so only the best grapes are preserved.
Then, the wine has fermented in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 28ºC. Afterwards, in order for the wine to take the wood aromas, the wine has aged for 8 months in Allier French oak barrels. Finally, the wine has spent 8 to 12 months in the bottle before launching it to the market.
The wine followed this thorough process because the winemaker wanted to achieve a concentrated wine that reflected the terroir of the Penedès region.
As a result, Boires, which means fog in catalan, is a wine that embodies the Mediterranean terroir's identity.
