Alegre Valganon: Garnacha Tinto 2023

Parker zu 2022 über: Garnacha Tinto

-- Parker zu 2022: The pale and bright ruby colored 2022 Garnacha has a varietal nose with notes of cherries, aromatic herbs, ripe fruit and decayed flowers and a more decadent profile that is more Mediterranean. It has a fine thread on the palate, with chalky tannins and supple flavors, finishing dry, clean, long and serious. The élevage was in 500-liter barrels, a 1,000-liter oak foudre and concrete egg, which seems to work nicely. It's ripe without excess, with 14.6% alcohol that feels integrated and balanced by the acidity and good pH. It does have some 5% Garnacha Blanca from Sajazarra. 2,700 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2024.
