Breca 2022 from Bodegas Breca, a project by Jorge Ordóñez, highlights the potential of the old Garnachas of Calatayud. The vines, over 80 years old, are situated in slate and quartz soils, in extreme, elevated areas. The 2022 vintage combines a warm year with the freshness of Calatayud, thanks to the altitude and thermal variations. Wine Advocate describes it as a mature wine with fine, balanced tannins. Aromatically, it shows intense notes of blackberry, plum, and licorice, along with mineral hints of slate. Its flavor is broad and powerful, with a meaty texture and ripe black fruits, supported by licorice and spices. With a persistent, expressive finish, Breca is an essential reference to understand the potential of the vineyards of Calatayud.
