Pancrudo 2023
| VINEYARDS | 100% Garnacha from old bush-trained vines planted in Badarán (Upper Najerilla) with north orientation at 650m above the sea level. |
| HARVEST: | Grapes were handpicked in 200 kg crates and hand sorted at the winery. |
| WINEMAKING: | Traditional elaboration. Fermented in stainless steel gently plunging the cap to extract the noble compounds from the skins. Malolactic fermentation 65% in new French oak, barriques and foudre, and 35% in egg-shaped cocrete tanks. |
| SOIL: | Red colored ferrous-clay soils in the rolling hills of Badarán. |
| CLIMATIC YEAR: | The year started with little precipitation during January and February but with mild temperatures that were higher than average. Little to no rainfall continued into Spring during April and May, but June brought 15 days of storms and, in some places, hail. This rain, followed by a hot summer caused more rapid growth and induced the earliest veraison in memory. As harvest approached, precipitation increased again over the course of a few days, which eased the stress on the vines. The harvest was quick and early, luckily avoiding the hail and storms our area saw afterwards. |
