Usted Organic 2015 Red Wine

Elaboration

Terra Remota — remote land — is exactly what its name promises. Founded in 1999 when the Bournazeau Florensa family acquired 40 hectares in the Alt Empordà region of Girona, in the northeastern corner of the Iberian Peninsula, the estate was built from the beginning with a philosophy as clear as it is demanding: complete integration with the natural landscape, absolute respect for the territory and an organic commitment formalised in September 2012 that governs every decision made in vineyard and cellar without exception. The Usted is their most ambitious and most personal expression — a limited edition organic blend of Garnacha and Syrah vinified with a level of individual attention that the word artisanal barely captures: each parcel processed separately in small stainless steel tanks and 55-hectolitre wooden vats, malolactic fermentation and batch ageing carried out in wood, every step customised and non-replicable by design. The 2015, now carrying a full decade of bottle development, presents a wine of extraordinary complexity — cherry in brandy, ripe black and red fruits, spices, truffle, cocoa and lead minerality on the nose — with the silky, melted tannins and long, salivating finish that only time, terroir and complete winemaking conviction produce together.
