Product description for Mesquida Mora Sòtil 2021 (bio)

Marian Henß:The indigenous Callet variety presents itself here as astonishingly delicate and slender. With its 12% ABV, it is a positive example in a warm climate. The Sòtil is juicy, crisp, and thrives on incredible acidity. No tannin, no unnecessary fruit sweetness, but a touch of extract on the palate. The finish is crisp and immediately triggers a desire for another sip. Full of finesse, this is a very modern interpretation of a Callet.

Information about the Wine

Mallorca is a refuge for many indigenous grape varieties that are found only on the Balearic island. Perhaps the most interesting among them is Callet: The grape tolerates the Mediterranean heat and dryness, yet produces lean and fresh red wines with moderate alcohol content and sensual aromas. All of this applies impressively to the biodynamic Sotil 2021 from winemaker Barbara Mesquida Mora. This single-varietal wine comes from 56- to 61-year-old bush vines and is aged in 500-liter French oak barrels.

Colour

Transparent cherry red

Nose

Sotil 2021 has an expressive and elegant nose with intense floral aromas and sweet cherry fruit. The bouquet testifies to great purity and finesse.

Palate

On the palate, this red wine is light to medium-bodied, with a silky texture, soft tannins, and aromas of cherries, a hint of pepper, and green bell pepper. Initially, it may seem a bit smooth in the mouth, but with increasing exposure to air, it develops wonderful grip, complexity, and length. Overall, the Sotil 2021 represents sleek elegance. It’s a fine and fresh red wine that showcases the Mediterranean at its most sensual. Undoubtedly one of Mallorca’s best “Callets.”
