Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The nose of the 2023 El Jardín de las Iguales Garnacha is stunning and made me go back to the glass over and over again, as it kept changing and unfurling new layers every few minutes. It's perfumed and elegant, spicy à la Vosne-Romanée from the south, with aromas of wild flowers, red fruit freshness, aromatic herbs, curry, celery and even white flowers. It is long, complex and balanced, with very fine-boned, chalky tannins. It has contained ripeness and 12.5% alcohol. Weightless but with structure, power with elegance, it is the proverbial iron fist in a velvet glove. This is the most complete, most elegant and finest vintage of this wine since they started. It should develop beautifully in bottle and for a very long time. 1,399 bottles, 60 magnums and three double magnums produced. It was bottled in July 2025.

Description
El Jardín de las Iguales Garnacha is an oenological jewel of the Bodegas Frontonio winery, made from centenary vines planted between 1918 and 1922 in the area of Barrandijos, Alpartir, at an altitude of 700 metres above sea level. This red wine is mainly composed of Garnacha ( 96%) and a small proportion of Macabeo (4%). The slate and limestone soil and the organic viticulture process are key to its production.
Winemaking
Harvesting is done by hand, and vinification includes fermentation with whole clusters and indigenous yeasts, followed by 14 months of ageing in 456-litre neutral oak barrels. Only around 850 bottles are produced per year.
Taste
Jardín de las Iguales Garnacha has a vibrant scarlet red colour. On the nose, it displays a delicate floral perfume with notes of blood orange, curry and dried bay leaf, providing an ethereal and captivating bouquet. On the palate, it is notable for its weightless tannin and grandiose texture, while maintaining a vibrant acidity that lends it freshness. It is, therefore, a wine renowned for its balance and elegance, with a long finish and refined structure, ideal for pairing with aromatic and complex dishes.
