Perfumed, Pinot-like Gredos Garnacha from a low-yield, long abandoned vineyard on mainly granitic soils in Cadalso de los Vidrios, at approximately 2,700 ft above sea level. Like other producers in the are, grapes underwent whole-cluster fermentation (con raspón). Aged for 12 months in used 300 liter barrels. Light ruby color, fragrant (strawberries, floral) and elegant — 6 years ago
Brilliant high altitude garnacha blanca. Some might confuse with White Bugundy. Captivating minerality and length. — 6 years ago

This is 100% Garnacha from 80 year old vines in the Sierra de Gredos mountain range near Madrid. Bright pale ruby in color, but intense on the nose, with wet granite, raspberries, plum, lilac and smoke. Savory and fresh on the palate with mild yet slightly grippy tannins and a structured acidity. A miriad of flavors jump out at me including fresh plums, tobacco, granite, and bouquets of spring flowers. Long finish. Very elegant, exquisite Garnacha! — 5 years ago
Orly Lumbreras MilaGritos Blanco Barrica. [identified wine wrong atm lol] Orange wine from Albillo Real. Amber color.

Pretty interesting higher altitude Garnacha. Very intense nose. Takes a bit open up. A lot to pick apart. — 6 years ago
Oxidized. Pale orange color. Honey and yeast and caramel apple with wet leaves and damp wood. A real treat, like a dry sherry with more savory depths. — 7 years ago
Another beauty from Gredos. — 7 years ago
Wonderfully balanced with some spice and character but not too much weirdness for an organic wine. I’d happily drink again. — 8 years ago

2013. It has a medium ruby color that's slightly cloudy with a young nose of cherries and tabacco while showing a tint of mustiness and slight volatile acidity. The mouth is dry and full of fruit recalling the cherries and adding some cranberries and dark chocolate. All and all it's a good wine but a bit dry and acidic for my taste. More marketing from Gredos. Good but not great. 15% alcohol with a medium color depth???? — 10 years ago
Pure Gredos garnacha du altura. Clear structure. Amazing acidity accents, like a little bell at the end of the tongue... — 6 years ago
Ruben Diaz Cerro de la Estrella. Ripe and tart blueberry and plum. Iron, clove, mint, and bay leaves. Stony minerality. In between ruby and garnet. More juicy red plum and red cherry on the palate. Low acidity, medium (+) tannins, elevated body (14.5% abv). — 6 years ago
A masterpiece of Sierra de Gredos, something to explore. Color light red, nose oozing of fruity, delicious Garnacha, taste is so pure and very seductive. — 6 years ago
Sunday night and I have opened the 2016 Comando G La Bruja De Rozas Garnacha. 100% Garnacha from the Las Rozas de Puerto Real in the Sierra de Gredos near Madrid.
The nose has aromas of strawberry, raspberry, black cherry, licorice vanilla and earth.
The palate has wonderful red fruits of raspberry, cherry, strawberry, anise, cinnamon, a minerality and dusty earth.
This wine is medium to full bodied with a smooth elegance, medium+ acidity and medium+ fine tannins that lead to a long fruit filled finish. For a village wine and the price this has blown me away. Have a great week ahead and please be safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 6 years ago
