1902 Bodegas Miguel Llorens, 'Rancio' Priorato - Priorat - 1 Bottle (0.75L)
Wine recently bought from a private cellar.
Bottle stored in private cellar up to today. Excellent storage conditions.
Extremely rare 123 years-old "Rancio" wine from the disappeared winery Miguel Llorens in Priorat wine region. Currently, the vineyard doesn't exist. Just a few dozen bottles of this "Rancio Priorato" (Dry Rancio Wine) were bottled and served only on special occasions to a winemaker’s family and friends.
A very rare 19th-century bottle. Very good filling level. No leakage. Check-out pictures.
Not much information about the wine is available. The wine was entirely vinified from vintage 1902 and bottled in mid-'40s. Harvested from passerillé old-vine grapes, fermented with native yeasts, taking years to complete fermentation. Left outside in glass demijohns and very old barrels for years, subjecting them to a kind of “thermal shock” before being moved inside to age in stores that boast only passive temperature control. The barrels were not “topped-up” and no sulfur was added, occasionally allowing the rare barrel to develop flor. The wine concentrated by evaporation and levels of acidity and alcohol initially dipped and then slowly raised, enabling the wine to resist spoilage as it gradually oxidizes.
