Lechuza
2025 Garnacha
BLEND | 100% Garnacha
VINEYARDS | Vineyards are located on the plateau surrounded by mountains at 550 - 1100 meters elevation. The lower parts have clay-calcareous soils, which move to black slates in the higher elevation sites. Yields are low due to poor soil nutrients and dry farming, with an average of 4000kg/ha.
WINEMAKING |The grapes are destemmed and fermented with wild yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel. The wine rests on the lees for about seven months without racking. The cold climate naturally calrifies the wine which is bottled with only a slight filtration needed.
TASTING NOTES | Bright cherry-red in color with a medium depth, showing youthful clarity and lift. The nose is expressive and layered, offering ripe cherry, wild strawberry, and hints of stone fruit interwoven with subtle spice. Eschewing oak pushes purity and freshness, leading to a smooth, fruit-driven palate with a light, graceful touch. The texture is round and gently velvety, finishing persistent and clean.
