Exibis La Rasa: Freshness, Fluidity, and the Soul of Recovered Grapes

The Genuineness of a High-Altitude Terroir Framed by Woodlands

Exibis La Rasa is a red wine born in the high-altitude vineyards of Navàs, farmed under strict biodynamic standards and an absolute devotion to the ecosystem. This wine shines for its honesty and finesse, steering clear of heavy extractions to present a fresh, clean version of Bages. Its true core flows from a beautifully balanced blend: the historic signature of Mandó, delivering floral elegance and lightness, intertwined with the expressive fruit of Black Grenache and the delicate backbone of Cabernet Sauvignon. Fermented purely with native yeasts, La Rasa behaves as a liquid mosaic reflecting the mineral chalky-clay soils and the singular cool microclimate of the northern part of the region.

Narrative Tasting Note: Crunchy Wild Berries and Balsamic Seduction

In the glass, it displays a bright cherry-red robe of medium intensity, shimmering with clean, lively ruby highlights that immediately invite you to taste. As you bring it closer to the nose, it opens charmingly with an array of very fresh aromas where crunchy wild red berries take center stage—highlighting fresh raspberries, wild strawberries, and redcurrants, accompanied by subtle hints of pomegranate. Swiftly, the wine evolves to reveal its Mediterranean soul, unfolding notes of forest floor such as wild rosemary, thyme, violet petals, and a very fine touch of sweet bell pepper from the Cabernet. On the palate, the entry is smooth, remarkably fresh, and fluid. The journey through the mouth is agile and velvety, steered by fine, polished tannins that integrate flawlessly with a lively, natural acidity that lends a delightful vertical drive. The finish is intensely savory, elegant, and balsamic, leaving a clean, fruity aftertaste backed by a chalky mineral memory that extends the experience in a highly refreshing way.
