Product Description
This 2020 Garnacha red wine hails from Catalunya, Spain. Alta Alella, a family - run winery, is nestled in the heart of Serralada de Marina Natural Park, close to the Mediterranean Sea and just miles from Barcelona. Husband - wife duo Josep Maria Pujol - Busquets and Christina Guillen lead it, with daughters Georgina and Mireia assisting. The grapes for this wine grow on Sauló soil, an acidic white granite - based sand with low limestone, little organic matter, and great drainage. It offers flavors of dark raspberry, blackberry, licorice, a hint of earthiness, and a refreshing finish. Pair it with Chorizo pasta with spinach and Manchego, Spanish olives, or lamb cutlets with Romesco sauce.
To enjoy this Alta Alella GX - Garnacha wine, first, let it breathe for about 15 - 30 minutes after opening. This helps bring out its full flavors. Pour it into a standard wine glass and take your time to savor the aroma and taste. When it comes to food pairings, as mentioned, it goes well with Chorizo pasta, Spanish olives, or lamb cutlets. Keep the wine in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight. If you don't finish the bottle, re - cork it tightly and store it in the refrigerator. It can stay good for a couple of days like this. Remember, it's best consumed at a slightly chilled temperature, around 55 - 60°F, to enhance its flavors.
