Les Cousins ​​Linconscient Crianza Red Wine

Les Cousins ​​Marc & Adrià presents this Priorat (Spain) wine, created from Cariñena, Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah grapes and presented in a 0.75 L format. Les Cousins ​​L'Inconscient 2012: Type: Aged red wine. Producer: Les Cousins ​​Marc & Adrià. Appellation of origin: Priorat (Spain). Grapes: Cariñena, Garnacha, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. Bottle: 0.75 L. Rating: Discovering the exceptional terroir of Priorat without having to pay a high price for each bottle is becoming easier every day with initiatives (fortunately, not the only one) like the one offered by Marc and Adrià Pérez.

Especially with their L'Inconscient wine, a wine that, from simplicity but without abandoning complexity or finesse, allows us to enjoy that "other" Priorat, more accessible and, above all, affordable.

The Pérez family is an unavoidable reference in this precious designation (Mas Martinet, Cims de Porrera), and Marc and Adriá vinify the wines of this very personal project in the emblematic winery of Cims de Porrera, a true calling card, which they complete with a striking, original and artistic label, which will undoubtedly serve to attract the younger public.

L'Inconscient is a fresh and cheerful wine, but also serious, complex and profound.

The Carignan grape, which makes up 30% of the wine's blend, seems shy in the glass; the first impression is of a compact, somewhat closed nose, but over time it ends up revealing its virtues (we recommend opening the bottle at least half an hour before drinking it).

Once opened, aromas of great elegance begin to be released, from fruits picked in the forest (wild fruits, spicy notes) to velvety aromas (rose fragrance).

It seems as if the wine suddenly awakens after a long sleep; it reacts similarly on the palate.

It starts with somewhat drying sensations, but over time it even shows a sweet touch and strawberry flavors.

The fruit is of high quality, well processed (short macerations), and the wine is very easy to drink, clean, straightforward, with a creamy texture but light to drink, with mineral and earthy notes, a smooth structure and a well-integrated, refreshing acidity.

Enjoy it, consciously.
