Description:
A powerful and deeply expressive 100% Carignan from exceptionally old vines, including 50 and 120-year-old parcels planted on slate soils. Low-yielding vines produce concentrated fruit with remarkable depth, acidity and balance. Destemmed and macerated for twelve days with gentle daily pigeage, the wine is fermented in stainless steel before being aged equally in stainless steel and 10-year-old American oak barrels. Unfined, unfiltered and with zero added SO₂, it captures the intensity and mineral character of old-vine Carignan and the distinctive terroir of Empordà. Named in honour of Jan, an 80-year-old local vigneron who tends the vineyard with Jordi.
