Old Vines Garnacha
Deep red in color, exuberant in scent with blackberries, light oak and some roasted coffee tones. The taste starts round, soft and aromatic; the aftertaste is spicy and smooth.
Juan Pablo Bonete at his best
Juan Pablo Bonete excels in the unknown Almansa with this full, creamy and accessible tasting red wine. It is made from garnacha grapes from sticks that are on average fifty years old.
The high-altitude vineyard is worked without irrigation, which is very special in this dry and warm part of Spain. The vines are not tied up and are kept low: so-called 'bush vines' or 'cepas de vaso' in Spanish.
As a result, the yield remains low and the small grapes retain flavor concentration and freshness. After manual picking, alcoholic fermentation takes place in large tanks. The second fermentation and maturation of about eight months takes place in 300 liter barrels made of American oak. The wood influence is minor and well dosed, the notes of ripe fruit dominate. Very successful!
