4Kilos was set up in 2006 by winemaker Frances Grimalt (known for his efforts in rescuing the local Callet grape which is featured in this wine) and musician Sergio Caballero (who is also founding partner and director of the Sonar electronic music and arts festival in Barcelona). Their first vintage was vinified in a milk refrigeration unit but are now working out of a converted sheep farm, using a combination of stainless steel and open top oak fermenters. They use local grape varieties from both the north and south of Mallorca as well as international varieties. 

12 volts is a blend of local varieties, Callet and Fogoneu as well as Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Intensely drinkable and vibrant, sure to give you a figurative and literal 12 volt jolt of energy.
