The wine that started as an experiment and ended up with a GOLD medal & 96 points at the London Wine Competition.
“Bright and juicy with raspberry, black fruit and gentle oak, this Garnacha blend delivers chewy texture and good length with a clean finish and an engaging style backed by standout packaging”.
If the GOLD medal isn’t convincing enough, here’s a bit more info on why we’re so excited about the latest addition to our portfolio and our part in the Pasotismo Collaboration.
The Blurb :
We are constantly trying to explore the potential of Somontano and push the limits of the region’s quality. Part of this project has meant re-establishing indigenous varieties and figuring out ways to unlock their idiosyncrasies to make unique wines with our trademark Paso-drinkability.
It’s a slow process, with endless trials, experiments, and micro-batch production but it’s an incredibly exciting project. Every day in the cellar feels like an opportunity, and tasting these trials encouraged us to make wines that wouldn’t be possible anywhere else in the world.
It started as a challenge to learn about our vineyards and became a quest to create something special. Local varieties that are only found in Somontano, enhanced by progressive farming and sympathetic winemaking. Everything that’s exciting about modern wine with the freedom to follow our palates.
This first, limited release under our Paso-Próximo banner is your chance to see what we’re so excited about.
The Details :
48% Garnacha, 26% Parraleta, 26% Moristel.
Bright, vibrant, fresh and complex. Big, crunchy, berry fruit with soft, rich tannins and sumptuous depth. This is an elegant wine with fun written all over it. No hard edges, no over-blown oak, just easy going and endlessly moreish.
