It may be a grape that is well suited to our ever-warmer summers, as it is drought-resistant and thrives in warm climates. As you can imagine, this is one deeply colored wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine begins in high-altitude vineyards planted to bush vines growing in sandy soils. The grapes are fermented using ambient yeast and bottled without fining. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTasting notes: Blue and black fruit notes dominate, complimented by ample notes of dried meats\/jerky, leather and pepper. A very complex wine for not a lot of dough!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePairings\u003c\/strong\u003e: Savory dishes with depth and complexity - think grilled lamb chops, braised pork shoulder, chicken roasted with garlic and smoked pimentón. Anything off the grill, either meat, mushroom or veg! Cheese-wise, reach for any of our aged cow's milk cheeses such as Comte, aged Mahon, smoked gouda or aged sheep's cheese such as Ossau‑Iraty. Pro-tip: high-acid cheeses should be avoided here, as they amplify the wine's tannins to the point of unpleasantness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Winery\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBodegas Atalaya is part of the Juan Gil ('hill') Family of Wines, a group known for expressive, region‑driven wines under different brands and across all of Spain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded 110 years ago, they are still family-owned and proud to shine a light on the potential of Almansa’s high‑altitude, limestone‑rich terrain.
