Notes on the Wine
Silky, spicy, and aromatic, this is a high-toned example of old vine Garnacha. Intense floral and berry aromas with lively acidity, mineral structure, and supple red berry fruit. Bright and succulent, totally sippable.
Notes on the Producer
When the Valkyries flew in to Cariñena we were dumbfounded by the sight of such a small town surrounded by ancient plots of old vine Garnacha and post haste began a massive blending session with winemaker, Ana Becoechea. We were thrilled to be able to play with blending components from 90 year old vine Garnacha. The result is our custom cuvee project, named Lechuza, for the owls that are so prevalent in the area.
