  A very light and delicately fragrant nose with red flowers, red cherries and a leafy, sappy edge. The palate has a succulent array of fresh strawberries and a sleek and juicy, elegant yet firm feel on the palate. Detailed and delicious garnacha here. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

  Also bottled and ready for tasting, the 2017 Las Uvas de la Ira shows the progress that started from 2015 (which I also tasted for reference), a wine from the Real de San Vicente village, three from owned vineyards and one purchased. This new vinification is inspired by the reds of Ganevat and Occhipinti, with some 35% of the bunches pressed and vinified in white, so there are fewer skins and stems in the vat and more liquid and the cap is totally immersed in the wine. Other 30% of the wine was inspired by Charme from Niepoort, which sees a very short but extracted vinification, and the rest is vinified traditionally. He thought this village needed a twist to gain in freshness and drinkability. It results in a very elegant and fresh wine, especially in a warm vintage like this 2017, with an impressive nose, open, very aromatic and floral, with citrus freshness within the style of the vintage. The palate showed very round, polished and elegant tannins, which makes it very approachable. It really transcends the vintage. (LG) 92+

  This lovely Grenache is quite light in color, something more common to this varietal than one would think. In this case it represents the style of the winemaker, Daniel Landi. Daniel farms some of the highest altitude, rockiest, and oldest vineyard sites in Castilla y Leon. His wines are more delicate in style and lean more towards the aromatic side than is typical in his area. Perhaps that’s part of the reason why he doesn’t mind the light color in his wines. The expectation it lends isn’t entirely off. It creates the opportunity to shake any prejudices regarding the region and the grape he’s chosen to work with, and introduce a more feminine aspect of Grenache.
