ABOUT THIS WINE
Freixenet Mia Tinto is a red wine from Spain, primarily made from Tempranillo grapes. The Mia line is designed to embody a modern and youthful style, with its bottle and label art inspired by the architectural designs of Gaudí, aiming to convey a sense of Spanish joie de vivre. The name 'Mia' itself translates to 'mine' in German, suggesting a personal connection from the winemaker, Gloria Collell, who seeks to highlight the pure character of the grape. While Freixenet is widely known for its Cava, this still wine represents an extension of their winemaking expertise into a more contemporary market segment. The wine is classified as Vino de España, indicating it is a Spanish table wine not bound by the strict regulations of a specific Denominación de Origen, allowing for flexibility in its regional origin, often cited as Castilla y León or Castilla La Mancha.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
Freixenet Mia Tinto is produced with a focus on showcasing the pure expression of the Tempranillo grape. Winemaker Gloria Collell's approach emphasizes allowing the grape's natural characteristics to dominate the wine's profile. A key technique employed is the avoidance of oak aging, ensuring that the wine's fruit-forward nature remains unadulterated by oak tannins or flavors. Fermentation is managed to enhance these primary fruit notes. The wine is bottled without barrel aging, contributing to its fresh and vibrant character. The overall winemaking philosophy is centered on creating an accessible and modern Spanish red wine that highlights the essence of the fruit.
