Les Joveres de Margalef Negre is a Red WIne, Coupage of Grenache (50%), Carignian (45%) and Merlot (5%).

NOTA DE CATA
Cherry red color with intense ruby color reflections. On the nose, the red fruit bouquets such as cherry, plum and fig stand out. In the background, we feel a slight pepper bouquet from Merlot that provides elegance and persistence. Third bouquets of spices appear such as licorize, cinnamon and cocoa that come from oak barrels. In the mouth, it's a stirring and lively wine. The entrance is powerful and the nice tannins stands out. It's a balanced wine and its acidity gives us a good aging potential.
