Garnacha de la Madre 2018

Añada 2018 > 93+ puntos

I was really surprised by the floral and elegant nose of the 2018 La Garnacha de la Madre to the point that I thought maybe I was mistaken and that the wine was produced with Garnacha rather than Garnacha Tintorera grapes! The vines are in a cooler place, and they ripen slowly and are picked late with fully developed aromas and flavors but, curiously enough, not with a very dark color. It talks about a short maceration and an élevage in concrete for 12 months, which has respected the primary character of the wine while it's also polished and complex. The finest vintage for this wine so far. Only 3,000 bottles. It was bottled in June 2020.
