Description

Cooper Cellars Los Angeles Cruz Alta 2023

Grape Varietals & Region: Cruz Alta is the name of a ‘Paraje’ or ‘Lieu Dit’ or ‘Cru’ in the foothills of the extinct volcano the Moncayo in the heart of Campo de Borja, Aragon, Spain. It’s 100% Garnacha planted more than 35 years ago

Taste Profile: Brambly raspberries, red cherries and some baked fruit and peaches. Chewy and flavorful, with a medium to full body and a fruity finish.

Winemaking Process: The viticulture is organic and biodynamic. This follows the “Vin méthode nature” guidelines, which requires grapes from organic vineyards, manual harvesting, no inputs and no sulphite
