2017 Castell D’Age Garnatxa SO2 Free
2017 Castell D’Age Garnatxa SO2 Free
Region: Pénédès > Spain
Grapes: Garnatxa (Grenache)
Vineyard/Cellar Stats: Demeter certified biodynamic farming; calcareous ‘Licorella’ soils; de-stemmed and fermented in stainless steel then steel aged for 8 month; bottled unfiltered with no added So2, zero-zero, vegan; 14% ABV
Winemaker: Olga Betrián
LADY IN CHARGE: At Castell d'Age there is not just ONE lady in charge (Olivia Junyent), but 3 generations of Catalan women who have been doing their organic/biodynamic wine thing for over 50 years – and another woman making the wine. Olivia’s now running the estate founded by her grandmother and works closely with Olga to continually do less to the wine – case in point: their proudly NAS Garnaxta!
This is biodynamically farmed Garnacha from Licorella, or slate, soils in Penedes, Spain, from the ladies at Castell d’Age. We love the label of this zero-zero cuveé, which proudly proclaims what’s in it, and not - 100% Garnatxa, and 0% B.S.! And it shows! Beneath the dark cloudy glass of the bottle, the deep cherry-colored juice sparkles with ruby highlights. It’s got big, exuberant fruit but stays fresh and light on its feet, with forest berries, plush tannins and a pleasant mouth-puckering acidity. Great with all the fall food. Serve with a light chill for the best sips!
