Esenzia Old Vine Garnacha Aragón Organic 2017

Why are we always trying to defy Father Time? After all, old vines make better wines. Just as old heads have more wisdom, old vines have more character. They might be gnarled and bent, but that doesn't mean they can't make bright and youthful wine. Each grape is a fresh new thing. Just as ideas are. And minds with a little more mileage often have the best ideas.

So! Let's agree. Experience makes things better, as long as you keep a sense of play. Then you can enjoy getting older, like the more senior vines behind this wine. Complex, but brimming with a youthful essence. We can't guarantee drinking it will keep you young, but then, you wouldn't be allowed to drink it if you were!

The Bodegas Tempore winery was founded by the Yago Aznar family in 2002. The family had been viticulturists for generations prior to this opening and they have extensive knowledge of the vineyard. Old garnacha vines coexist with more modern plantations in their vineyards.

Although this red wine is made with old vine garnacha grapes it is full of youth, offering a bright maraschino-red colour with a purple rim. The bouquet expresses intense aromas of the garnacha grape whilst the palate presents excellent balance, intense fruit flavours and a supple body.
