Founded in 2006 by Francesc Grimalt and Sergio Caballero, 4 Kilos is a winery that is dedicated, and has possibly rescued, the local grape Callet. Once a sheep farm, this winery is now recognised as one, if not the best producers on the island. The name 4 Kilos, refers to the initial 4 million peastas investment that was used to launch the winery. Money well spent we believe!!
12 Volts is made mostly of local grapes Callet and Fogoneu, but with a percentage of international varieties. This is a rich and intense wine, but it has lots of fresh and vibrant read and black fruits to balance it beautifully.
'The serious and somehow austere 2023 12 Volts has a deeper color than any of its siblings. It was produced with a blend of 55% Fogoneu, 35% Syrah and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon fermented in stainless steel and matured in 3,000-liter foudres (40%) and used 225-liter French oak barrels (60%) for eight months. It has a nose of berries, herbs and spices with a balsamic touch, with a sense of ripeness beyond the alcoholic degree. It has a contained 12% alcohol and some slightly dusty tannins.'
