"Representative of the freshness of the mountain town of Lerga, this Garnacha 2023 comes from six small parcels that reflect the freshness and elegance of the region. The wine is fermented in concrete with indigenous yeasts, then aged for nine months in a combination of concrete and 500-liter French casks. It has a certain tamed wildness with pretty aromas of strawberry and mint. It offers a chalky texture and relief, making it both full-bodied and balanced. 2024-2030" (Tim Atkin 2025)

About the wine:
Golerga 2023 is a pure Grenache from the village of Lerga, located in another region of Navarre, at a higher altitude, with a different latitude and twice the rainfall. It is produced from grapes that, in the past, were used to make rosé or blended with grapes from other regions. The vines are located at an altitude of around 600 meters, and the grapes ripened completely, reaching 14.1% alcohol, while retaining very good freshness (pH 3.26) and acidity (5.8 grams). It was fermented in concrete and stainless steel, and matured in 500-liter French oak barrels and concrete. It has a very expressive nose, with complexity, layers and depth, a balanced and very tasty palate with fine tannins and a superb mouthfeel and long finish. This is a wine of purity and intensity. It's magnificent, a notch above the already impressive 2021. 2024-2030

About the wine:
Golerga 2023 is a Garnacha from Lerga, Navarre. Floral and expressive, with notes of rose, palo rosa, wild herbs and a touch of blood orange, it is light and taut on the palate, offering a lovely grip and chalky texture beneath the delicate fruity aromas. Intensely aromatic and vibrant, with an infused feel that retains its presence and character, this is a modern Grenache defined by its floral bloom, sanguine subtlety and reductive energy. 2025-2040
