Description
Garmón Continental Garmón 2018
Garmón Continental Garmón 2018 is the finest wine they've produced so far. Deep and brilliant violet colour. Aromatic opening of cherries, lavender, potpourri, vanilla and exotic spices. The focused palate exhibits finesse and elegance, a fresh acidity and youthful tannins. Red and dark berry compote flavour at its core with overtones of licorice, violets, woodsmoke and chalky minerals.
Ageing potential: Drink now or keep until 2035.
100% Tempranillo from different villages in Ribera del Duero, Spain. The vineyards range between 30 to 100 years-old, experience a continental climate, and can be found between 800–1,000 metres above sea level. Although not certified, the vineyards are farmed using organic and biodynamic practices.
Fermentation by village with indigenous yeasts. The wine matures in 225-litre French oak barrels for 20 months
