Casa La Rad Rioja Garnacha Special Edition 2020
Casa La Rad Rioja Garnacha Special Edition 2020
93 Points - Tim Atkin MW. Only 2,000 bottles of this highly rated Garnacha (Grenache) have been produced from a tiny 1.98-hectare parcel at 600 metres which was planted 49 years ago. "Mint, pine and wild thyme aromas are the prelude to a palate that's bright, refreshing and elegant, with notes of cinnamon, redcurrant and wild strawberry." Harvested by hand in small quantities, after fermentation it was pressed then half of the wine went to new French oak casks for malolactic fermentation and the other half stayed in the inbox tank for malolactic fermentation. After 15 months ageing in barrel they are put the two together and bottled, it is then kept in bottle for a further 12 months before the releasing.

"Casa La Rad's Viñedo Singular release hails from a 1.98-hectare parcel on stony clay and limestone soils at 600 metres and was planted 49 years ago. Mint, pine and wild thyme aromas are the prelude to a palate that's bright, refreshing and elegant, with notes of cinnamon, redcurrant and wild strawberry." 2024-30
Taste
Intense aroma, notes of strawberry yogurt, red and slightly floral fruits, jasmine, violet, in the background typical aromas of oak, with leathers and smoke. Powerful, elegant and silky wine. The toasted notes of the barrel appear in the mouth and the notes of fruit and flowers are perceived. Fine and elegant wine in which the red fruit persists.
