Més Que Paraules Negre 150cl

Més Que Paraules Negre captures the soul of Pla de Bages. This wine region, in the heart of Catalonia, is regaining recognition for authentic, character-driven wines. The name means “More Than Words” and reflects a desire to create wines that speak for themselves and for the land they come from. It is rooted in heritage, where native grapes meet international varieties in a harmonious blend.

The landscape is shaped by rolling hills, Mediterranean vegetation and small vineyard parcels. At around 400 metres altitude, the vines enjoy warm days and cool nights. This climate allows slow, balanced ripening and preserves freshness. Clay-limestone soils with scattered pebbles store heat during the day and release it at night, adding subtle mineral notes to the wine’s personality.

Sustainability is a core value. The vineyards are cultivated under the Integrated Production certification, which protects biodiversity and respects natural resources. The winery also works to recover ancestral grapes such as Mandó. This variety offers elegance, slow ripening and vibrant acidity, even in warm, dry years. It brings balance and freshness. Cabernet Sauvignon adds structure and depth, while Merlot gives smoothness. Sumoll completes the blend with its rustic character.

Més Que Paraules Negre is crafted in limited quantities. It focuses on balance and harmony, rather than sheer power. As a result, it is a red connected to its origin, suited for sharing at the table, and capable of showing the elegance that defines modern Pla de Bages. Above all, it is an invitation to discover the region through a wine that feels genuine and memorable.

PRODUCTION METHOD

Made from 50% Mandó, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 10% Sumoll, this red wine comes from vineyards planted in the late 1990s on clay-limestone soils with surface pebbles. Yields are kept low, between 3,500 and 5,000 kg per hectare, to ensure concentration and character. The grapes undergo a pre-maceration at controlled temperature for 7 to 12 days, followed by spontaneous fermentation between 22 and 26 °C for two weeks. Malolactic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, with each variety vinified separately to preserve its individual personality

AGING

Aged for 12 months in French and American oak barrels, each variety maturing on its own before blending, followed by additional bottle aging for integration and harmony

TASTING NOTE

Deep cherry red with a bright garnet rim and fine, slow-falling tears. The nose opens with ripe wild red fruit, hints of violets and subtle floral tones, evolving towards toasted notes, gentle balsamic freshness and a touch of spice. On the palate it is generous and round, with mature fruit and well-balanced oak. Smooth, ripe tannins and a lively acidity give structure and length. The finish is long and persistent, with a perfect interplay of fruit and fine toasty nuances.
