“The 2018 Atteca feels more harmonious and fresher than the 2019 I tasted next to it, despite both having similar alcohol levels (15%) and almost the same acidity and pH parameters. One extra year in bottle has polished the tannins, and the cooler, even if more challenging year seems to have given it an extra spark. It’s still a full-bodied and powerful Garnacha that can handle powerful food. 72,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in April 2019.” -Luis Gutierrez

Description

D.O. CALATAYUD ATTECA

Las uvas provienen de viñedos viejos de Garnacha con bajo rendimiento, localizados en colinas a 700-1000 metros de altitud. Plantados mayoritariamente en suelos de rocas metamórficas y gravas arcillosas. Tras la fermentación en acero inoxidable el vino alcanza una gran complejidad tras permanecer 12 meses en barricas de roble Francés.
