It all sorted itself out in the end…
Indeed, it all sorted itself out in the end. Our winery is finally almost ready and we have just rounded off our best harvest ever. As they say in Spain, everything sorts itself out...
L'Addició, La Colina and El Tracte - our black label wines – are more than just wine. They are crafted to blend in, enhance flavors, and create harmony at the table rather than overpowering the meal.
With elegance, balance, and complexity, they adapt to the food and elevate the dining experience. They are not just a complement to the meal – they are part of it.
L'Addició, has undergone an exciting development, introduced a new style in the 2022 vintage with 50% orange wine. This change brings a unique, complex character with an added dimension of structure and flavor. With its deep berry aromas and light tannin structure, balanced by the characteristic tannin and acidity freshness of orange wine, L'Addició is now even more versatile, pairing excellently with flavorful dishes like white meats, game, and stews, but also with grilled fish, seafood, and cheese plates.
El Tracte, our very first wine has been highly appreciated since its introduction. With its elegant balance of medium fruitiness and fine tannins, it has quickly become a favorite choice for both restaurants and wine lovers. This wine unites dishes and enhances nuances in both wine and food, making it ideal for flavorful, rustic dishes like lamb, game, and truffle pasta.
La Colina, our newest wine has quickly gained popularity for its elegant balance of fresh acidity and mineral character. This wine has proven to be particularly food-friendly, enhancing lighter dishes like white and red meats, meat stews, grilled fish, and Mediterranean-inspired meals. Despite its youth, it has already earned a very good reputation for its ability to complement food beautifully.
The new vintage 2023 of L'Addició has a new updated tasting profile. 50% of the wine has macerated with the skins for 29 days and is basically an orange wine. The other 50% of the wine has had skin contact for 24 hours and been aged 9 months in new 225 L Swedish oak barrels.
This gives a more concentrated wine, where the yellow tones are more evident, it is aromatically dense and complex with notes of lemon peel, fresh fruits such as peach and apricot, and notes of green tea and fresh mint. On the palate it is opulent and fresh with good acidity and volume. A very pleasant gastronomic wine.
Bell Cros launches ONE OFF #7 – a Blanc de Noir from blue grapes
We are delighted to introduce our latest creation: ONE OFF #7 Blanc de Noir. This unique white wine is carefully crafted from the blue grapes Garnacha Negra and Carinyena, offering an exciting combination of freshness and complexity. ONE OFF #7 is the result of an artisanal winemaking process, where the dark grape skins are gently pressed to avoid transferring color to the juice. The result is a wine that balances the fresh lightness of a white wine with the structure and character of blue grapes.
Tasting Notes
This pale wine, with subtle pink reflections, offers aromas of citrus, red berries, and hints of fig. On the palate, it is fresh yet nuanced, with a smooth, silky texture.
Food Pairing
ONE OFF #7 Blanc de Noir pairs beautifully with seafood, poultry, vegetarian dishes, charcuterie, and cheese, but can also be enjoyed on its own. For the best experience, serve at 10–14°C.
Discover a new dimension of white wine with ONE OFF #7 – created to be enjoyed on all occasions.
