Winemaking: Organic Escursac grapes were harvested by hand. Whole bunch fermentation for 10 days with indigenous yeast. Aged in old barrels 12 months. No fining, filtration or added sulphur. 

This Wine: Natural red wine made with grapes from the vines of Cati Ribot with light to medium body. Strong Mediterranean character with plentiful dark fruit flavours, subtle herbal notes and salty minerals. Made in tiny quantities.

Notes on the Winemaker: We first became aware of Eloi around 2016 whilst he was working as a winemaker for 4Kilos in Mallorca. Despite the warm climate of the island, he was producing delicate but complex wines that brimmed with Balearic character. Later he moved into the cellar of Cati Ribot to focus on his own cuvées under the Sistema Vinari name. These wines offer even more personality and always find the perfect balance of wildness and precision.
