La Viña Escondida 2018 is a high-quality red wine produced by Bodegas Canopy in the Denomination of Origin Méntrida, known for its over 90-year-old Garnacha vineyards. This wine comes from an old vineyard located in the Sierra de Gredos, where the vines are planted on granitic soils producing grapes that reflect the purity and essence of the region. The harvest is done manually, ensuring that the vineyard's character is maintained in its production. The production includes cold prefermentative maceration and fermentation using traditional techniques that highlight the natural properties of the fruit. After these processes, the wine ages for about 16-18 months in large French oak fudres, giving it a complexity and smooth texture without masking the freshness of the grape and the terroir. In the glass, La Viña Escondida showcases an attractive bright ruby red color that invites tasting. Its aromas are varied and elegant, highlighting notes of cherry, raspberry, and plum, accompanied by floral, spicy, and mineral hints that add to its complexity. On the palate, it is silky, fresh, and balanced with fine tannins that provide a long and persistent finish, combining intensity with delicacy. This wine is very versatile and pairs perfectly with roasted meats, stews, and lamb dishes, making it an excellent choice for accompanying special meals.
