From the home of flamenco, paella and tapas, here is a real taste of Spain with all the personality and complexity of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao” New World Wine Awards

Located vineyards with low yields producing ripe and concentrated Garnacha are harvested at full ripeness to ensure softness. The majority of the selected vineyards are bush vines. Parcels are fermented using a variety of techniques to preserve the characters of the terroir in the final wine and to produce a ‘New World’ style Garnacha bursting with fresh fruit. Bottled within one year of production and designed for youthful consumption, but has capacity to age beautifully.
