The wine's story:
Trepat is the local red grape of Conca de Barberà, usually made into light reds and rosés. Òrbita Venus makes it into an 11% red from two vineyards in Conca de Barberà. There is no appellation on the bottle: it is a Spanish wine without a DO.
Òrbita Venus is a project of René Barbier Meyer (Venus La Universal) and friends. According to a 2024 article in Ara, the grapes are bought from the Conca de Barberà wineries Succés Vinícola and Carlania, and the wines are made in the Sindicat La Figuera cellar, which places them outside the appellation system. The range name Puños Fuera comes from the anime series Mazinger Z.
Winemaking:
100% Trepat. According to the importer Kensington Wine Market, portions with shorter and longer macerations, fermented with the stems, are blended. The wine ages in concrete tanks.
Tasting notes:
A light, fresh, peppery red. The Canadian wine shop Kensington Wine Market finds strawberry, raspberry, rose and a hint of pepper; Vine Arts adds fine tannins, bright acidity and a refreshing herbal finish.
Food pairing:
Lightly chilled with tapas and sausage – light, tangy Trepat suits salty snacks. Grilled salmon; mushroom risotto; chicken with herbs.
