This is a different Rioja style in that it is lead by Garnacha grape (Grenache) and then Tempranillo and is unoaked.
The wine undergoes cold fermentation with native yeasts, and a short maceration. Then the two wines (grape varieties) are assembled and refined in concrete for around 5 months. This style of premium, unoaked Rioja is a homage to the time in Rioja before the Bordelais arrival. Eschewing barrique influence allows Gómez to focus on the fruit and the terroir.
Bright and aromatic with cherry and berry characters and a hint of garrgiues. The palate is complex with layers of plum, bramble and forest fruits, all supported by fine tannins, and long and elegant on the finish. 14% vol.
