Pálpito is a true reflection of the new direction of Bodegas Franco – Españolas. It is a tribute to effort, teamwork, curiosity and wisdom.
This wine is the result of many years of experience with the complicated and delicate Garnacha.
It was very hard work that is rewarded when you taste Pálpito and realise that this is such an extraordinarily elegant wine.
This red wine 100% Garnacha is elaborated with grapes selected cluster by cluster, then destemmed. They ferment in 500l barrels along with the skins and are stirred several times a day, remaining at an average temperature of 28ºC.
After fermentation, the skins remain in the wine for 7 days. Malolactic deacidification takes place in semi-toasted new French and American oak barrels, with second-use barrels also employed to prevent the wine becoming too woody.
The wine is aged in these barrels for 14 months with a break every 4 months for decanting. Later, it was bottled on March 1, 2023 and continues to evolve in the bottle.
Appearance- Cherry red with ruby tones; a Garnacha with vibrant colours.
Nose- Complex on the nose, fresh, with good intensity. Red fruit in jam, dairy, minerals, balsam, hints of perfectly
integrated roasting and toasting.
Mouth- Very well structured, flavourful, fresh, succulent, lively. A perfect balance between finesse, strength and
silkiness. Predominance of fruit. High quality mild and ripe tannins. An elegant, intense finish and complex aftertaste.
Outstanding typicity.
Very smooth and highly versatile in its pairing: with roasted meats (e.g., lamb or suckling pig), given the depth of the
wine. Its elegance enables it to pair with rice dishes of all kinds, a delight for paella lovers to be sure
