Supple Tempranillo, firm Mazuelo, Cabernet and Syrah round things out. Whites Macabeo, Chardonnay, Moscatel.
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: Extraction
All the methods (pumping over, punching down) that allow the colour and tannins to be extracted from the grape skin during maceration, before fermentation begins. It is also possible to macerate after fermentation, but gently, so as not to extract the tannins from the seeds, which are greener. Because of its solvent power, alcohol favours extraction.
