Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2021 Garnacha Blanca has a similar profile as the Torrontés, with moderate alcohol and very high acidity. This comes from the vines they have been regrafting, different biotypes from a massal selection. The wine is floral and perfumed, delicate and ethereal, with Mediterranean and citrus notes, mixing ripeness and power with freshness and elegance. It has 13.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.23 and 6.1 grams of acidity. Like all the whites, it fermented and matured in oak barrel for five months. 1,658 bottles were filled in April 2022.

Description
Abel Mendoza Garnacha Blanca is a single varietal white wine created from Garnacha Blanca grapes harvested from several plots in the municipality of San Vicente de la Sonsierra. The vines have an average age of 30 years and are planted on clay-limestone soils.
Winemaking
The grapes were hand-picked from vines planted alongside other varieties in the same vineyard, as was done in the past. Abel Mendoza Garnacha Blanca was fermented with wild yeasts and matured in barrels for five months with periodic lees stirring.
Taste
It has deep flavors that attest to the ideal ripeness of the grape; it is round and almost sumptuous, but also refreshing due to its high citrus acidity. The oak is almost invisible, and the finish is highly mineral and persistent.
As pure as it is fresh
Abel Mendoza Garnacha Blanca has shown all the potential that many of us had forgotten. It has a pleasant degree of freshness and excellent aromatic clarity. It is pure, transparent, and ages very nicely.
And you, what are you waiting for? Try this fresh and pure wine and enjoy your next evening.
