Las Martas Garnacha 2020, Bodega San Gregorio, Calatayud
92 point, James Suckling, Sep 2022
"Black olives, dried herbs, bark and black cherries on the nose, together with a hint of tarry, oyster-sauce savoriness. Full-bodied with nicely chewy tannins in a chalky texture that will mellow down with another year or two in bottle. Savory cherries and spices in the finish. Drink or hold"
Big, warm, flavoursome old-vines garnacha is a real Spanish speciality, and our favourite, Las Martas, manages to combine bold, expressive, ripe berry fruit with soft tannins and an appealing spicy richness. The latest vintage has just arrived in our cellars, and is perfect for summer drinking.
The grenache grape, garnacha in Spanish, originates in the early middle ages in the ancient mountainous kingdom of Aragón, before migrating in the 17th century to southern France. Bodegas San Gregorio have just released the 2020 vintage of Las Martas, grown at nearly 2000 feet in the beautiful Ribota valley and made from low yield vines planted in the 1940s and picked by hand - a great addition to our list in the last year. Remarkable for a wine under £12.
Tasting notes:
This modern-style red made with old vine garnacha is warm, rich and flavourful with an appealing crunch. Very moreish and incredible value for money.
