Gratavinum Dolç D’En Piqué

Gratavinum Dolc d’en Pique has an intense, deep, ruby colour with purple hues. Great aromatic intensity and complexity on the nose, with rich, dried fruit aromas (prune, fig) balanced by a touch of toastiness from the oak. On the palate it is soft and velvety, intense flavours of dried fruits combine with vanilla and toasty notes from the barrels. Long, lingering and delightful on the finish.

The grapes were allowed to naturally overripen before they were harvested, and the sugars accrued during the heat of summer along with the concentration of flavours provided by the terroir allow Gratavinum to produce this excellent sweet red wine. The alcoholic fermentation was stopped to leave the residual sugars that provide the sweetness, smoothness and character to the wine, and the Gratavinum Dolc D’En Pique was aged for 12 months in new 400 litre French oak barrels.
