Marqués de Montañana Garnacha

Marqués de Montañana Garnacha

​Fermentation & Ageing: 
Marques de Montañana is made from ancient low bush vines planted in the D.O. Calatayud high in the mountains of Northern Spain between Madrid and Zaragoza. After a careful selection of the Garnacha grapes proceeding from 50 year-old bush vines, the grapes were destalked and crushed. The fermentation took place for 15 days at a maximum temperature of 28ºC. After the fermentation in concrete vats, the wine had an extended maceration for 2 weeks. The must was pressed. Once the malolactic fermentation was finished the wine was racked.

Packed in cases of 6 and 12 bottles.

Grape variety: Garnacha (AKA: Grenache)
13,9% vol.

 

Winemaker's notes:

Intense and extrovert bouquet. Its palate shows exuberant concentrated berry flavours and a touch of spiciness.


Service suggestions: 
It pairs very well with full flavoured meat dishes, particularly lamb and game.

Serve at 15-16ºC
