All the distinctive character of the Old Vines
Robert Parker 91/100This cuvée fully expresses the character and distinctiveness of the old Grenache vines, some of which are over a century old. Las Rocas Garnacha Vinas Viejas (Grenache Vieilles Vignes) is a wine that exudes a complex, mineral bouquet with notes of ripe fruit and spices. It gains structure and complexity thanks to 11 months of aging in oak barrels (60% American and 40% French). A full-bodied, rich wine that concludes with a finish of remarkable aromatic persistence. A superb value for the price!
