Product Notes

Gallina De Piel Roca del Crit is a divine Spanish wine, emanating from Catalonia's diverse wine region. Crafted from indigenous Grenache & Carignan grapes, it unveils a symphony of ripe dark fruits, balanced by savoury, earthy notes and fine tannins. The old vine grapes imbue this full-bodied wine with a provocative intensity, whilst nuanced spices and significant minerality offer complexity. Thanks to careful ageing, it displays a remarkable, textured palate, leading to a lasting finish. A must-try for lovers of Spanish wines. A supremely elegant wine that compliments robust, flavoursome dishes impeccably for a gastronomical delight.

Tasting Notes

Rich and complex notes of autumnal fruits such as red cherry and blackberry, giving way to violet, rosemary and liquorice. As well as hints of coffee beans.

About the Winery

Gallina De Piel

Nestled in the heart of Catalonia, Spain, lies the hidden treasure of Gallina De Piel. Founded by renowned sommelier David Seijas, Gallina De Piel is not merely a winery; it is an epitome of the love for viticulture and the grandeur of winemaking.

David's vision behind the winery was to 'create drinkable beauty' and craft wines that embody the identity of their origin. With a keen eye for detail, he handpicks grapes from small vineyards across Spain, often working alongside the farmers to ensure the very best of the crop. Each wine this winery creates is a harmonious amalgamation of innovation, tradition, and unrivalled craftsmanship.

One might be charmed by the winery's quirky moniker, 'Gallina De Piel', which translates to 'goosebumps'. David chose this unconventional name to encapsulate the overwhelming sensation he aims to evoke with every finely crafted bottle.

Visitors get to immerse themselves in a delightful whirl of wine tasting sessions, vineyard tours and intimate tete-a-tetes with David. While wine is the star of the show, the beautiful bucolic setting adds to the charm, threading together the unforgettable experience that is Gallina De Piel.

The winery's portfolio includes a selection of reds, whites, and rosé, which David calls "wines of landscape" as they are a tangible embodiment of the vineyards from which they originate. These artisanal wines stay true to their Spanish roots, embodying the distinct flavours of the local terroir while maintaining a beautiful youthfulness.

From the vine to the bottle, every process at Gallina De Piel is a love letter to winemaking. This novel approach towards viticulture has placed this winery on the global map. Creating wines that are bound to give you ‘goosebumps', Gallina De Piel is indeed a testament to Spain’s fascinating wine heritage.
