The wine region of Almansa
Castilla-La Mancha DOP southeast of Albacete, high-altitude vineyards (700-1,000 m) on limestone, dry continental climate. Signature Garnacha Tintorera as ruling red (~60%, Alicante Bouschet, red pulp): dark and fruity with blackberry, candied cherry, plum, violet, garrigue, leather and spice, round tannins and meaty palate. Dense, fresh Monastrell thanks to altitude (blackberry, kirsch, garrigue). Supple Tempranillo, peppery Syrah.
The wine region of Castille
Cradle of great Castilian reds, high-altitude plateaus (450-1000 m) along the Duero. Tempranillo king (aka Tinta de Toro, Tinto Fino): powerful, concentrated, structured reds with notes of black cherry, plum, leather, tobacco and spice, firm tannins from altitude and cool nights. Stars: Ribera del Duero (Vega Sicilia, Pingus), fleshy Toro, Bierzo (floral, mineral Mencía). Lively, herbaceous Verdejo whites from Rueda.
The word of the wine: Deposit
Solid particles that can naturally coat the bottom of a bottle of wine. It is rather a guarantee that the wine has not been mistreated: in fact, to avoid the natural deposit, rather violent processes of filtration or cold passage (- 7 or - 8 °C) are used in order to precipitate the tartar (the small white crystals that some people confuse with crystallized sugar: just taste to dissuade you from it)
