| Notes | "The Garnacha from Espelt comes from their highest elevation vineyard, Rabós, tucked in the Albera Nature Reserve Area. These are the oldest vines on the property with centenary Garnacha Negra and Carinyena grow on sandy slate and granite soils. While there are plenty of inexpensive, fruit forward Garnachas coming from Spain, few have the depth of minerality and complexity found in this old-vine cuvée." (Winemaker's Notes) | |||
