ALTITUDE

The elevated freshness of the SiurAltas allow – with non-interventionist winemaking – to work naturally, without adding any sulfites or other chemical substances. Deep wines, rich in spices, delicate and different to most references that our oenological memory can treasure. Wines in which acidity becomes the backbone, substituting the traditional tannic structure. Pure, artisan wines, very close to their origins. Altitude wines, with ability to age.

ACIDITY
TRANSPARENCY

 

Vins Nus are based on a biodynamic agricultural practice, surrounded by an active microfauna in a semi-wild environment. The vineyards are always located in the limits, at altitudes over 700m (2300ft).

 

 

Spontaneous fermentations, restful, whole cluster and stem macerations… and aging options that are very respectful, combining small stainless tanks with “gres” amphoras of diverse formats, and – only in specific occasions –  old foudres. Shifting between containers as if it were a gentle culinary exercise. Respect as the main rule to conserve authenticity.

SiurAlta Orange is an empyrical wine: the winemaking thesis becomes the most important, above the common goal of reflecting a wineʼs origin (in this case various white varieties). Harvested early, with the intention of compensating…

SiurAlta Morat is an imagined wine, previously conceived. Co-fermentation of syrah and just a 10% of viogner, harvested early at the same time, far from ripening limits. The goal is to obtain – with the…

Genuine and naked, SiurAlta Antic is like the Noble Savage, like the anchorite that – without atrezzo – descends the Montsant mountain range coming from the small Hermitage in Sant Joan del Codolar, walking through…

Grey grenache, a mutation of red grenache, has an orange color that becomes grey when ripe. Difficult to compare with other references, SiurAlta Gris has a boisterous character, terpenic notes and is able to flirt…

DREAMINGWAKE

While discovering the vineyards in the northern limit of the region -Cornudella del Montsant – the dream awakes. The Montsant Natural Park combined all the characteristics that were capable of combatting the incidence of global warming in this austere terroir. It brings an additional richness: the double condition in its soils in each side of the valley: Calcareous in the West – around Sant Joan del Codolar hermitage – and a combination of clay and slate (licorella) on the East along the foothills of the Gritella Mountain Range.
