Amphora
The Metamòrfic from Costador is a 100% Carignan. The whole process of fermentation, fining and ageing happened in amphoras, resulting in a beautiful, complex red that tastes like a 10/15 year old wine despite the vintage. Forestfloor and blackberry in the nose, a delicious forest berries compote in the palate combined with leather, pepper and cloves. Earthy yet fruity with a great balanced between tannins and acidity. Simply amazing!

Old vines and high altitude!
The winery is run by Joan Franquet, a natural wine artisan who makes the impossible happen. Indigenious rare grape varieties, almost extinct, make this winery special. The high altitude and the rich terroir allow the wine to express its best form – complexity, minerality and character.
