In 2003, Tomàs Cusiné decided to embark on a new wine-producing project, one into which he could put all of his passion and knowledge for producing the finest wines. His extensive experience in the DO (with Castell de Remei) enables Tomàs to create wines of the highest character and elegance, marking the beginning of a project with great hopes and ambitions His aim, as always, was to elaborate wines full of character that were capable of fully reflecting the characteristics of the soils from which they were produced.
- Winemaker: Tomàs Cusiné
- Varieties: 100% Ull de Llebre (Tempranillo)
- Terroir: Trellised vineyards on slopes, with soils characterized by some clay and silt with calcareous sandstone and gravel at 715 meters.
- Farming: Organic practicing
- Vinification: Hand harvested and cooled in cold-storage rooms before going through the selection table. Short maceration followed by a 22-26 day fermentation with indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged for 3 months in French oak barrels and an additional 3 months in subterranean cement tanks on the lees.
- Tasting Notes: Cherry color with garnet reflections. Clean on the nose and smooth with well-integrated notes of red fruits, candy, vanilla and white pepper. Silky on the palate, fresh and elegant, with smooth tannins. Llebre is a fresh and elegant expression of the local clone of Tempranillo known as Ull de Llebre (eye of the hare).
