WINE DESCRIPTION
Breca Garnacha de Fuego is an exceptional wine crafted by Bodegas Breca, a renowned producer situated in the rugged terrain of Aragón, Spain. This wine is a testament to the unique terroir of the Calatayud appellation, where old-vine Garnacha thrives on high-altitude vineyards reaching up to 2,500 feet. The age of the vines, some over 60 years old, coupled with the limestone-rich soils, contributes to the concentrated flavors found in the grapes. Bodegas Breca employs meticulous winemaking techniques, including careful selection of grapes and aging in French oak barrels, to produce a wine that beautifully expresses the varietal's character.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Breca Garnacha de Fuego envelops the senses with a vibrant bouquet of ripe red fruits, particularly cherries and raspberries, intertwined with subtle hints of spice and vanilla from its oak aging.On the palate, it presents an impressive depth of flavor, marked by juicy berry notes and a silky texture that leads to a long, satisfying finish. The wine's well-integrated tannins and balanced acidity make it both approachable and complex.
