Rioja Garnacha 2021, Cuentaviñas

From vines aged more than 100 years, situated in a vineyard on the Ebro’s right bank, this has a vibrant raspberry juice colour and irresistibly juicy Garnacha aroma of strawberry cordial and hints of morello cherry and orange zest. It’s a pleasure just to inhale it for a few minutes. Upon taking a sip, one is confronted by glorious freshness and purity, seamlessly supple texture, exceptional balance and elegance. Raspberries, liquorice and pink peppercorns. An utterly lovely wine.
