Description
The 2021 Garnacha CDVIN is lighter and more floral than the rest of the range, with neatly integrated oak and a vibrant palate with a fine thread of acidity going through its core. It’s ripe at 14.5% alcohol, but you don’t feel it, and the wine comes through as balanced and fresh. It matured in 500-liter barrels for 14 months. 7,987 bottles produced. It was bottled in May 2023.

Varietal
Grenache
The purple skinned grapes of the Grenache varietal have quickly become one of the most widely planted red wine grapes in the world, flourishing in several countries which have the correct conditions in which they can grow to ripeness. They thrive anywhere with a dry, hot climate, such as that found in central Spain and other such arid areas, and produce delightfully light bodied wines full of spicy flavors and notes of dark berries. Their robustness and relative vigor has led them being a favorite grape varietal for wineries all over the world, and whilst it isn’t uncommon to see bottles made from this varietal alone, they are also regularly used as a blending grape due to their high sugar content and ability to produce wines containing a relatively high level of alcohol.
