An authentic, natural, and traditional wine produced from the original Garnacha, which was first cultivated in Arag\u00f3n in the 7th Century, and spread around Europe by the Medieval Kingdom of Arag\u00f3n. Calatayud produces a unique expression of Garnacha due to its geographic and climactic conditions. As Spain’s highest altitude region for the production of Garnacha, the temperature swings are radical – up to 60\u00b0F in the summer. This produces wines with deep color and character, as well as lively acidity. The wine is characterized by aromas of ripe black fruit compote, overlaid with spices such as black pepper. There is an obvious minerality to the wine, proceeding from vineyards\u2019 diverse range of soil types. The soils range from iron rich red slate and clay to black slate.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
