“The quiet grace of this wine is so enigmatic that from the first moment you hold the wine in your mouth, the wine holds you in its interstices. Still. Captured. Silence. Its raspberries picked at dawn, tasting of dew on grass. It tastes of fresh-ink curlicues pressed into thick, creamy card. It tastes of tellicherry peppercorns infused in blood-orange juice and bruised on the tip of the tongue. The tannins are tissue-paper fine, taste like rain, feel magnetic. It's a stunning Wine”. - 2021 Vintage, A taste of Spain, by Jancis Robinson - Mayo 2023

    The red 2022 Garnatxa - Sumoll was produced with a 50/50 blend of both grapes purchased from local growers. It has 12.7% alcohol, a pH of 3.39 and 5.4 grams of acidity. It fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel, where it matured for nine months. It's primary, fruit-driven, aromatic, peachy, clean and expressive. The idea is to learn to make Sumoll and, in the long run, produce only Sumoll, not blend it with Garnacha. This has some dusty tannins and should stand up to food.
