It’s a superior Recaredo wine and an exceptional vintage in the area.” He adds that “the aromatic palette of this wine is very different from the rest of the line-up, with green olives, curry, toasted and smoked spices, all integrated in a very subtle way”. The 2008 vintage produced healthy grapes with extraordinary acidity, ideal for the long ageing that this Corpinnat undergoes – a minimum of 12 years and six months – resulting in an exclusive production of 4,317 bottles. Turó d’en Mota 2008 is a vintage marked by meteorological contrasts: a moderately dry and warm autumn and winter, followed by a rainy spring, which set the pace in the vineyard. The result is a wine with great harmony and delicacy that reveals the most authentic essence of the Mediterranean, with low yields (21.3 hl/ha) of very high-quality fruit. Turó d’en Mota 2008 has been fermented in 300-litre oak barrels.
