Proyecto Garnachas de España, La Garnacha Salvaje del Moncayo, Vino de la Tierra de Ribera del Queiles, Aragón, Spain 2020

This is part of the Proyecto Garnachas de España, a collection of six wines made by Raul Acha in five different areas of Aragón, Catalonia and Rioja. The vines for this wine are at about 800m on the north face of the Moncayo, a mountain north of Calatayud, in the Aragon region. Manual harvest in mid-October is followed by a two week maceration and then five months ageing in French oak. It's light in colour, with earthy, cherry-laced aromas that hint at elegance and delicacy. It still has mid-palate presence, however, and a stylish feel. Juicy and mouthwatering. This will be in stores from November.
