Bodegas Piqueras is a proud fourth-generation family estate, established in 1915 in Almansa, a wine region in southeastern Spain situated about 60 km from Alicante and the Mediterranean Sea. The region’s arid climate, characterised by low rainfall and poor, limestone-rich soils, is ideal for cultivating robust and expressive wines. At an altitude of 850-950 meters, the vineyards benefit from cooler nights, helping to retain freshness and balance in the fruit. The old vine Garnacha, aged between 45-60 years, is carefully hand-harvested at its peak ripeness, ensuring the finest quality fruit. This wine spends 6 months in American oak barrels, lending it a rustic charm with notes of spice, vanilla, and ripe red fruits. The result is an approachable, hearty style of Garnacha that captures the essence of its unique terroir. A delightful and authentic wine, it's a must-try for lovers of bold, traditional Spanish reds.

a brooding collection of dark fruits, exotic spices, fine espresso, dark chocolate and subtle cedary oak notes.

The recommended serving temperature is 16-18 degrees.
