Spanish White
White Grenache makes up sixty percent of the blend, with twenty-five percent Macabeo and fifteen percent Moscatell. This is a skin-contact white from a producer based in Pinell del Brai, Terra Alta. The vineyard work follows biodynamic principles, fermentation is spontaneous and no sulphur dioxide is added. Each vintage is handled individually, with the wines intended to reflect the grower, grape and place.
Mendall Alícia Serres 2024 Santa Helena
Spanish Red
This red combines eighty percent Carignan with twenty percent Grenache Blanc from young vines in Vilalba dels Arcs, Terra Alta. The vines are farmed biodynamically on calcareous clay soils, and the grapes are harvested by hand. Maceration and spontaneous co-fermentation take place in amphora. The wine also ages in amphora before pressing and is bottled unfined, unfiltered and without added sulfur dioxide. Alcohol is fourteen percent.
Mendall 2024 La Torre Grenache
Spanish Red
This red release is made from Grenache and comes from Terra Alta in Catalonia. The vines are farmed following biodynamic principles, and no sulphur dioxide is added. The wine is made in a small town-centre cellar, where limited space means that most releases are bottled young. Each vintage is treated individually as an expression of grape and place.
Cooperativa de Gandesa Terralta Vermouth
Spanish Fortified
Bright amber and intensely aromatic, with sweet spice, Mediterranean herbs, menthol, fennel and rosemary. The palate opens softly sweet and fresh, then gains structure before a persistent, gently bitter finish restores balance. Serve well chilled or over a single cube of ice with orange peel; it is a natural aperitif alongside olives, roasted almonds, anchovies or cured meats.
