Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The 2021 Garnacha de Viña Bonita is pure Garnacha from a plot of very old vines planted in 1929 on very shallow and compact granite soils at 735 meters in altitude with north-facing exposure. It is always subtle and elegant. It fermented with 8% full clusters and indigenous yeasts in oak vats for over six weeks and matured in two well-seasoned 600-liter oak barrels. This has very low alcohol, 13%, lower than in other years, and the wine feels more delicate and fine-boned, floral and ethereal. The palate shows elegance and refinement, with the backbone of granite minerality that lifts it up. It has good freshness and balance that give it length. 1,500 bottles produced. It was bottled in April 2023.

Features

Description

Bernabeleva Garnacha de Viña Bonita is a plot wine that comes from a unique location in the upper part of the mountain, at an altitude of 700 metres above sea level. This plot is characterised by a more compacted granite than other vineyards in the area, allowing the growers to feel the bedrock. The age of the vineyard in this plot is impressive, at around 80 years old. With an extension of 2.8 hectares, the planting density is 2,200 vines per hectare.

Winemaking

The vinification process of this wine begins with a cold pre-fermentation maceration that lasts 36 hours. Fermentations are carried out with 100% stems at low temperature, and the maceration can last up to 70 days. During this process, the grapes are trodden with the feet and gentle movements are made to avoid excessive extractions. Native yeasts from the grapes are used and minimal amounts of sulphur are added.
The wine is aged for 14 months in French oak barrels of different sizes and cooperage. Subsequently, it is left to settle for 6 months in stainless steel tanks for natural stabilisation.

Taste

Bernabeleva Garnacha de Viña Bonita is an outstanding representation of Madrid 100% Garnacha. At first sight, it presents a rather translucent ruby colour. However, its flavour reveals a more robust character than its appearance suggests. On the palate, one can detect notes of dehydrated red fruit, olives, smoke and a subtle presence of wood. The entry on the palate is pleasant, with a slightly tannic touch and good acidity. Unlike other Garnachas, the fruit is not so predominant in its flavour.
