La Vadina

The entry-level Garnacha 2020 La Vadina was produced with grapes from vines at 700 meters in altitude in the village of Almonacid de la Sierra in Cariñena, in a zone known as La Vadina, a high-altitude place with marl and slate soils. It's very fruit-driven, grapey and juicy, very primary. The palate is medium-bodied with chalky tannins, more serious than the nose. 20,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in September 2021.

A fruity blend that delivers attractive crushed-berry and coffee character. Medium body, round tannins and a savory finish. A little chewy at the end. Drinkable now, but better in 2021.
