Viticulture and production
The grapes were destemmed, and fermentation began 48 hours later at a controlled temperature for 7 days with selected yeasts, followed by a 28-day maceration. It was then aged for 12 months in French oak barrels on its lees. Afterwards, it was filtered and bottled to preserve all its aromas and flavors.

Tasting and pairing
Deep red in color, similar to that of ripe cherries, with excellent depth of color, it presents aromas of very fresh red fruits, well-integrated oak notes, and spices such as vanilla. On the palate, it is full-bodied and very smooth, with a long and refreshing finish. Its good structure indicates a wine of great complexity due to its extended aging in oak barrels. A wine to be savored until the virtuosity of the Solista fades.

Additional information
Manual and with 300 Kg sticks. Serving temperature between 16 and 18 degrees.
Terra Alta enjoys a continental Mediterranean climate with cold winters (average minimum temperatures of 1–2 °C in January and February) and very hot, dry summers (maximum temperatures of up to 34 °C in July and August). Rainfall is moderate (350–500 mm annually), concentrated in spring and autumn, and the strong northwesterly wind known as the "cerç" blows. Humidity varies from 82% in winter to 51% in summer. These conditions—intense sunshine, marked temperature cycles, and balanced rainfall—are ideal for the balanced ripening of the grapes and the production of DO Terra Alta wines.
