CDVIN Garnacha

The grapes come from more than hundred-year-old, north-facing vines in Cordovín and Badarán, at the foot of the Sierra de la Demanda. The soils are described as clayey and iron-rich, in places with veins of gypsum. After manual harvesting and double selection, the wine ferments in 3,000-litre French oak vessels; maceration lasts around 20 days. It matures for 14 months in used 500-litre French barriques. The nose reveals plum, sour cherry, violet, pomegranate and spicy notes. On the palate, it shows clear fruit, fresh acidity, fine-grained tannins and medium to full body. The vintage comes from vines planted in 1923.
