At Cingles Blaus we harvest in October,
a month later than other Spanish regions.
Do you know how this influences the character of our wines?

The vineyards of Cingles Blaus are situated in the highest growing area of the Montsant, near Cornudella, on the south side of the Montsant Massif.

High altitude means cooler summers, vines don’t suffer from so much heat and harvest is later than in Falset, another spot of the region, where they start picking around the middle of September.

This gives our wines a uniquely fresh, floral and fruit character.

With October I am looking for a wine that is easy to drink, clean and fruital on the nose, tempting, elegant and light on the palate. If there is a bottle on the table, it will empty easily and lead to another. People should drink it without ceremony and allow their senses to enjoy. It is a democratic wine which I hope reaches as many people as possible.
