Cuentaviñas Garnacha 2022 is a notable representation of Eduardo Eguren's efforts, a descendant of a historic Rioja family, to showcase the richness of old Garnacha in Alta Najerilla. The grapes come from small plots in Cordovín and Badarán, where vines grow in complex soils of clay, silt, and gypsum, under the Atlantic influence of the Sierra de la Demanda. This imparts a unique freshness and tension to the wine in the landscape of Spanish Garnachas. Aromatically, it offers extraordinary purity with notes of fresh cherry, raspberry, and pomegranate, complemented by hints of violets and fine spices. On the palate, the wine reveals elegance and smoothness, maintaining an exceptional balance between fine tannins and vibrant acidity, with flavors of red fruits, berries, soft spices, light cocoa, and a mineral saline finish that extends enjoyment. This wine stands out from the warmer, riper styles typical of other regions, favoring a more refined and vertical expression that honors the originating vineyard, making it one of the innovative labels of the new generation of Rioja.
