Abadia de Poblet Conca de Barbera 2016

The Trepat grape used for the Abadia de Poblet Tinto, comes from vines planted during the first half of the twentieth century, in areas that historically had been vineyards, but in which the cultivation of cereals was alternated between the rows of vines and with almonds planted at edge of the vineyards, bringing together the three Mediterranean crops typical of the Conca de Barberà. Old vineyards with south and southeast orientation in poor lands and at heights that go in the case of Trepat from 550 to 600 meters. Low yields, help find a Trepat with good concentration and with the expression of the land where it comes from. The Garrut of vines about 20 years old is located near the Monestir de Poblet in richer soils mixed slate and sands. The vineyards of Ull de Llebre and Garnacha are lined by the Prades mountains around 700 meters high and on floors marked by a mixture of slate and clay, the vines of both varietals oriented to the northeast.
