"A real fruit explosion!"

“The Soplo 2020 is a young Garnacha with about 10% Monastrell and Forcalla and a moderate alcohol content (13.7%). It was fermented with 20% whole clusters in stainless steel using gentle winemaking techniques and aged in oak barrels for 12 months. It has a brilliant ruby color and a fragrant, expressive, youthful nose blending fruit and floral notes; it is elegant on the palate, with fresh, very fine tannins, great texture, and highly concentrated, clean flavors. Superb. Excellent value for the price as well.” (Wine Advocate 2022)

Review and comment by Mr. GILLES D. Published on June 30, 2022

A delightful discovery. On the palate, it combines power and body, supported by supple, dense, and well-integrated tannins. This 100% Grenache showcases a beautiful concentration of fruit, accompanied by notes of spice and hints of tobacco and vanilla—the result of a long, well-balanced aging process. It remains crisp and refreshing right through to the finish, which features a light acidity. As a bonus: an attractive price. Serve slightly chilled at 15° alongside a hearty dish of Spanish rice with marinated pork shank and chorizo, cooked à la plancha.
