Campos de Luz Garnacha 2017 (Spain)
Deep red in colour with a deeper weight of colour than for a regular Garnacha. Scents of fresh blackberries and cherries, together with a hint of black pepper. Full and rich in the mouth, with the fruit immediately to the fore, a broad pallet and a long juicy finish which holds its presence without astringent tannins.
A mild winter lead to an early spring. A light frost did not affect the vines, so development was normal. The summer was one of the driest on record, leading to low yields, but excellent health and intensity. The harvest was one of the earlist in living memory.
Destalking, but the grapes are not crushed to encourage intercellular fermentation and greater fruitiness. Fermented at 20 rising to 24ºC at the end of the fermentation in stainless steel tanks with daily pumpovers and skin contact for 7 days. Malolactic fermentation begins naturally immediately afterwards.
This wine orginates from D.O. Cariñena region in the village of Alfamen, where winemaker Jose Manuel Mainar manages the 150 hectares of flat alluvial soils.
