Garnacha

Spain’s answer to Grenache, Garnacha thrives in the warm, arid regions of Aragón, Priorat, and Rioja, where it produces bold, fruit-forward reds. Raspberry, ripe strawberry, and white pepper define its youthful profile, while age brings deeper notes of leather, licorice, and dried herbs. High in alcohol and naturally low in acidity, it excels in old-vine plantings, where deep-rooted vines provide exceptional concentration. A cornerstone of Spanish viticulture, Garnacha offers both hedonistic pleasure and serious depth, particularly in the hands of skilled winemakers.
