Forgotten Garnacha from Aragón

Forgotten Garnacha from Aragón shows the enormous potential of Garnacha when it comes from very old vines. Its gentle and ripe tannins reflect the low yield and concentration typical of these vineyards planted in 1940. This red wine, produced by Vintae, has been recognized in previous vintages with the Gold Medal at the International Competition "Garnachas del Mundo". A full, tasty wine that stays true to the character of its origin.

Production
Made with Garnacha from bush vines planted in 1940, located on an east-facing slope. Clay-iron soil with pebbles in the Ribota Valley (Calatayud). Manual harvest in mid-October.
17-day maceration and fermentation at a controlled temperature below 25 ºC in 15,000 kg concrete tanks. Aging for 6 months in concrete tanks, which maintains its fresh and fruity character.

Pairing
Ideal with rice dishes, red meats, pasta dishes with meat, light stews, and traditional recipes where the fruit of the Garnacha can shine.
