Matošević Grimalda Red 2019

The Matošević ‘Grimalda’ Red is an organic certified red wine blend of Teran (30%), Merlot (60%) and Cabernet Sauvignon (10%) grapes, sourced from a terraced, sunny, single vineyard in Central Istria, near the village of Grimalda. An alpine variety similar to Refosco, Teran provides forest berry aromas, high levels of acidity and crunchy, slightly wild tannins. The Merlot adds flesh to the mid-palate and lends a suppleness to the texture. The wine is aged in French oak barrels for around 15 months, which contributes spicy complexity. Grimalda is a complex, long-lived, juicy, but also easy-drinking red wine that is a vibrant ruby in colour. A mixture of red and black fruits dominate on the nose along with hints of chocolate and spice. The palate is fresh and juicy, with gentle tannins, an excellent structure and lifted minerality on the close.

Vintage Availability

We endeavour to display accurate and current vintages on all our wines listed on the website; however, from time to time stocks of the vintage listed do become exhausted. If this is the case with your order we will always contact you to recommend another vintage of the same wine, if it is still available. If the vintage of a wine is important to you then please leave a note at checkout advising us of this. 

 

Stock Availability

As we are retail stockists, selling from our Ledston shop as well as online, it makes it difficult for us to show a 'real-time' inventory of our wines and spirits online. As such, very occasionally, a wine may be out of stock that the website has allowed you to order.

To ensure a timely delivery, we are happy to substitute your order with a similar wine of equal or higher value and at no additional cost to you!

If this is not an acceptable solution please advise us in the 'Add A Comment' section at the checkout.
