The wine region of Cariñena
Historic Aragón (DO since 1932), birthplace of Carignan (Cariñena here). Yet Garnacha dominates: fleshy, sun-soaked reds with signature notes of candied red fruit (cherry, raspberry), spices, pepper, garrigue and balsamic notes, round tannins and opulence. Many old vines. Also dense, tannic Cariñena (Mazuelo), supple Tempranillo.
The wine region of Aragon
Autonomous community of northeast Spain, historic kingdom of Iberian red Grenache (~75%). Signature Garnacha: generous and sun-drenched with signature ripe cherry, crushed strawberry, garrigue, kirsch, sweet spice and a balsamic touch, round tannins and a warm, alcoholic palate. 4 major DOs: Cariñena the largest (old vines), Calatayud high-altitude, Campo de Borja and Somontano at the Pyrenean foothills. Fresh Macabeo and Garnacha blanca whites.
The word of the wine: Overmaturation
When the grapes reach maturity, the skin becomes permeable and progressively loses water, which causes a concentration phenomenon inside the berry. This is called over-ripening or passerillage.
