“Inici i Desti ekstremno su moćna i ekspresivna vina iz Priorata, koja srećom ostaju elegantna i pitka Oba su vina, dakle, radikalna i fenomenalna. Radikalna znači da alkoholi prelaze 15 posto.
Nadalje, oba su vina drastično gusta: ekstrakti su vjerojatno blizu 40. Međutim, Inici i Desti istodobno su glatki, elegantni, prepuni finih zrelih tanina i svježeg crnog bobičastog voća zaokruženog u list cigare i crnu čokoladu.” Kult plave kamenice 10/2021
Brilliant, clean, and cherry red in color with a cardinal-red rim. The nose is rich with red fruit, bringing raspberries and redcurrants to mind, with notes of aniseed.
Fresh and fruity on entry, red fruit once again comes to the fore, this time blended with echoes of vanilla from its brief stint in oak. It is well balanced and its mature, velvety tannins usher in a long, elegant finish.
Soil:
The rocky soil, very poor in organic matter, makes for low-vigor, low-yield vines. The laminated bedrock means the vines’ roots grow down as far as 15 meters. Both factors help the vines endure the summer stress and lead to a perfect, progressive ripening of the grapes. Harvested by hand in 20 kg boxes. All the harvested grapes are destemmed. Fermented/macerated at a controlled temperature in stainless-steel vats. Macerated for three weeks. Gently pressed using a pneumatic horizontal press. Malolactic fermentation in 225-liter French oak barrels. Aged for 8–12 months, after which the wine is blended and bottled. Inici is neither filtered nor fined.
