Finca Espolla is one of Perelada's most unique single vineyard gems, awarded the prestigious Vi de Finca Qualificada status in DO Empordà. Grown on slopes of black slate (llicorella) at the foot of the Albera mountains, this red blend of Syrah and Mourvèdre (Monastrell) thrives under strong Tramuntana winds. Aged for 15 months in French and American oak barrels, it delivers intense minerality, wild power, and sophisticated complexity.
In the glass, it displays a deep dark cherry color with violet highlights and high opacity. The nose unleashes a captivating mineral character, immediately showing notes of graphite, flint, and slate rock alongside wild dark berries such as cassis, blueberries, and blackberries. As it opens up, layers of black pepper, violets, liquorice, toasted oak, and balsamic Mediterranean mountain herbs emerge. On the palate, it enters with volume and grandeur; broad and mouth-coating with fleshy, velvety tannins balanced by a crisp acidity that maintains tension. The finish is extremely long, mineral-driven, and elegantly spiced.
Cutting-edge surf & turf match. Slate minerality and Syrah structure mesh brilliantly with rich tuna fats and umami miso glaze.
Refined regional pairing. Rich lamb textures balance seamlessly against vibrant acidity and polished tannins.
Profound flavor pairing. Fleshy Mourvèdre body and oak spices complement rich savory textures and subtle cocoa notes.
