The Producer
Tomàs Cusiné Barber owns the winery and the named wineries Castell del Remei, Cérvoles Celler and Cara Nord. The winery is in El Vilosell in Les Garrigues, within the Costers del Segre appellation. Vilosell and Geol are red Costers del Segre wines, while Auzells is a white Costers del Segre blend.
Place
The winery in El Vilosell, Les Garrigues, sits within the Costers del Segre appellation at more than 700 metres. At that height, the growing environment is cooler and ripening takes longer, preserving acidity in the grapes. Auzells comes from the Comabarra mountains, in the coolest part of that range.
Wines
Vilosell and Geol are separate red Costers del Segre wines. Auzells is a white Costers del Segre blend from the Comabarra mountains. The range puts named red wines beside a white wine made from white grape varieties. Each variety contributes aroma and acidity to the finished blend.
Final Word
Auzells comes from an estate of approximately five hectares in the Comabarra mountains, planted with five white grape varieties. Vilosell and Geol are the separate red wines named alongside this white Costers del Segre wine.
