La Garnatxa
Torroja del Priorat
THE VINEYARD
Vineyards cultivated on steep slopes, on slate and clay soils, in the municipality of Torroja del Priorat. The climate is semi-arid Mediterranean continental, where the austere conditions lead the vines to express to the extreme the characteristics of the resulting wine.
LA GARNATXΔ 2020
A single-varietal wine made from Garnatxa Negra (Grenache). Hand-selected harvest. Fermentation with whole berries, without stems. Gentle daily punch-downs during the first few days to aid extraction, combined with a long post-fermentation maceration for polysaccharide extraction. Aging for 12 months in 300-liter French oak barrels.
TASTING NOTES
Cherry color with garnet rim. Pleasant nose filled with ripe fruit, predominantly forest fruits, gentle toasted oak hints with spicy notes reminiscent of cocoa and dry tobacco. Mineral undertones.
Powerful entry on the palate, luscious, broad, and intense, with excellent structure, ripe fruit, and good acidity. Long finish with a lingering taste of ripe fruit.
A wine that truly represents its terroir.
Recommended serving temperature: 15ºC.
