Bodegas Proelio 2018 Vinedos Viejos Garnacha (Rioja)

This remarkable wine derives from 18 micro-plots of 80 year-old head-trained vines in and around the commune of Cárdenas. The iron-rich soils there imbue it with coiled power and striking flavour. Better on the second day than the first, suggesting long life ahead, the stamp of Rioja seems stronger than that of Garnacha. None of which is as important as the simple tastiness and class of the wine.
