Planas Albareda Desclòs is an elegant, smooth red wine full of Mediterranean harmony crafted by the family-owned Planas Albareda winery under DO Penedès. Farmed from selected Merlot vineyards adapted to Penedès limestone soils, this wine cleanly expresses the approachable, velvety, and deeply fruity character of this international grape variety. A balanced red wine with a silky passage and great gastronomic versatility, ideal for any occasion.
In the glass, Planas Albareda Desclòs displays a bright cherry-red color of medium-high density with youthful violet and garnet highlights. The nose immediately unfolds a fresh, intense, and luscious bouquet: ripe black and red fruit primary aromas —such as blueberries, black plums, cherries, and wild blackberries— emerge harmoniously intertwined with soft cocoa hints, dark chocolate notes, sweet spices, and delicate Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, it delivers a broad, clean entry with a surprisingly velvety texture; its mid-palate is fleshy, rounded, and fluid, featuring polished, sweet tannins balanced by lively acidity that maintains overall freshness. A long, clean, and delightful finish leaves an unforgettable echo of black fruit preserves and subtle spice.
A fun street-food pairing quick to assemble at home. Melty pork belly richness and sweet plum notes pair sublimely with this Merlot's velvety texture and ripe fruitiness.
A groundbreaking, elegant surf-and-turf match. Fleshy bluefin tuna and soy umami background find their ideal counterpoint in this red wine's smooth passage and polished tannins.
A quick, delicious tapas option. Lactic cheese acidity and sweet fig notes highlight cocoa touches and wild forest fruits in Desclòs.
