Tasting notes
It has clean and intense aromas with notes of fresh red fruits with a spicy and toasted background. Petit Bernat stands out for its sweet and balsamic notes. It can remind you a fire stone. The wood has its presence when you smell it but it is fully integrated.
When you taste it, a gourmand, friendly and balanced attack appears. It has a light structure with good volume and with long and fresh taste. Its sweet tannins offer a well integrated balance between alcohol and acidity.
Climatology
The zone has a Mediterranean climate with a continental influence. The pluviometry of the vintage has been slightly higher in comparison with previous years (740L/m2). This has mean that we have a good flowering and a good balance in the grapes
