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: Phylloxera
Aphid that came from America and ravaged European vineyards at the end of the 19th century. It lives on the roots of the vine, from which it pumps the sap. The only vines capable of resisting it had to be imported from the United States, and then grafted onto their root system the wood of traditional French grape varieties. Today, grafted vines are always planted.
