This single-parcel wine is from a vineyard site called “La Casa de Aperos” (House of Tools), located 650 meters above sea level. Here, Garnacha is imparted with juicy brightness from calcareous soil deeply reddened by natural oxidized iron deposits. Following the heritage of the monastery that originally planted this vineyard, this ruby-colored wine is made using their original 13th century fermentation amphorae.
Serving Suggestion: A whole hog cooked slowly over a wood fire, lightly spritzed w/ lemon juice & sea salt. Grilled chicken thighs w/ teriyaki sauce. Smoked seitan “ribs” w/ BBQ sauce.
