«La Garnacha rouge 2017 d'entrée de gamme est une valeur étonnante, car elle provient de vieux vignobles cultivés à sec et taillés à la tête dans le village de Fitero. [...] C'est une Garnacha juteuse et délicieuse qui est vraiment savoureuse. Le domaine est vraiment en train de prendre de la hauteur et chaque millésime semble être meilleur que le précédent. Une grande Garnacha à un bon prix.» (Wine Advocate 2018 - Robert Parker)

About the wine :
The entry-level 2017 Garnacha red is a stunning value, as it comes from old, dry-farmed, head-pruned vineyards in the village of Fitero. It was fermented in whole bunches, in stainless steel, with indigenous yeasts and bottled wood-free to preserve freshness and acidity. This is lively and fresh due to the early harvest and the use of stalks as the conditions of the year are hot and very dry. It's a juicy, delicious Garnacha that's really tasty. The estate is really coming into its own and each vintage seems to be better than the last. A great Garnacha at a great price.

Great drinkability for this Grenache, which stays close to the fruit and can be enjoyed without fuss around the barbecue.

A finish that tastes like raspberry candy, not what I expect from a wine...

Fruit vinified with finesse and acuity, suave + a hint, very slightly, of mutated wine. Very good.
