Ànima Negra ÀN/2

ÀN/2 bottle image

Wine Description

ÀN/2 is a perfect introduction to the wines of Mallorca. This unique red is made from old vine Callet, Mantonegre-Fogoneu and Syrah fermented in a combination of stainless steel and concrete—macerated only briefly to retain the freshness and flavors of the fully ripe fruit. Aged for just over one year in a combination of 80% French barriques and 20% American oak.

Acclaim
In “The New Face of Ibiza,” Joshua David Stein writes about the Spanish island and that despite its reputation as a “party-centric” getaway, there is a burgeoning farm-to-table movement taking place in the center and the north. Stein is invited to La Granja’s weekly “Friends of a Farmer” supper prepared by Chef José Catrimán, whose Citrus-Chile-Marinated Pork Tenderloin is paired with ÀNIMA NEGRA ÀN/2 2014.
