Description
This relatively young family owned Domaine was created in 2001 by vignerons with 4 generations of vinegrowing and winemaking expertise under their belts. They own some seriously old vines in superb sites in the Southern Rhone on a mixture of soils of red sand, clay and the classic ‘Galet’ pebbles associated with Chateauneuf du Pape. As a result, their wines posess a wonderful depth and concentration.
60% Grenache and 40% Syrah from 80 year old vines are hand harvested and then fermented in a mixture of stainless steel and old oak barrels, before blending and then ageing for a further 12 months in large demi-muid barrels. This is a terrific wine which manages to expertly balance power, elegance and finesse – the hallmarks of great southern Rhone reds. Stunning value.

Can do Sil, Bodegas Carballal, DO Valdeorras
Mencia
Can do Sil is a wonderfully fresh, fruit led blend of Garnacha and Mencia produced from lightly macerated fruit from young vines. The ferment is made in stainless steel and the wine bottled after the spring equinox. It is a lightfooted, violet and blackberry infused wine with elements of mineral coolness. A refreshingly breezy and bright Spanish red with notes of sour cherry, raspberry, violets and sweet spice. It's unoaked and very drinkable.
