Bodegas Edetaria Seleccio Terra Alta DO 2018

Crafted from old bush vines rooted in the sun-drenched, windswept landscape of Terra Alta, the Selecció is Edetària’s signature red blend. Predominantly Garnacha Fina with a supporting role from Syrah and Samsó, the grapes are hand-harvested and fermented with native yeasts. The wine is aged in French oak to enhance texture and depth without overshadowing the vibrant fruit and mineral edge of the terroir.

Bouquet
The nose opens with aromas of ripe black cherry, wild herbs and lavender, layered with hints of dried fig, liquorice and earthy spice. There is a savoury undertone that hints at the wine’s complexity and ageing potential.

Palate
Rich and mouthfilling, yet elegant in structure. Ripe dark berries are framed by smooth tannins and vibrant acidity, with notes of cocoa, smoked spice and a mineral line that adds tension and definition. The finish is long and savoury, showing the balance and finesse of carefully matured Garnacha.

Food Pairing
An ideal partner for roast lamb with rosemary, venison with juniper, or rich mushroom dishes. Also pairs beautifully with Manchego or smoked Spanish chorizo.

Cellaring
Delicious now with a decant, but built to evolve through to 2030 and beyond, revealing further layers of complexity with time.

Interesting Fact
Terra Alta is one of Catalonia’s hidden gems, and Edetària is considered a benchmark producer of Garnacha. The Selecció is only made in the best vintages, showcasing the region’s potential for world-class reds.
