Note di degustazione
The 2021 Tumba del Rey Moro is 100% Garnacha from Villanueva de Ávila, sourced from 1,100 ungrafted vines planted in sandy granite soils with a touch of silt. It offers aromas of cherry, sour cherry, violet, rose and fig skin. Silk-textured, juicy and moderate in weight, the 2021 concludes with a long, complete finish. Balanced and finely structured, it integrates all of its elements with delicate poise.

The pale, delicate and ethereal 2021 Tumba del Rey Moro feels more austere than any other vintage of this single-vineyard wine. It comes from vines at 1,100 meters above sea level on granite soils in the village of Villanueva de Ávila and has a notable absence of fruit. Instead, it's mineral and floral, with subtle herbal notes ("piparra" peppers again!). It was harvested around the 12th of October, and by that time, the grapes had had a full development of aromas and flavors. The wine finished with 14% alcohol but with gobsmacking balance and freshness. The alcohol is not noticeable, a constant across the portfolio. The nose was shy at first and took time to develop, but when it did, it was layered and complex, with more Burgundian floral notes. The palate is super austere with lots of energy, reminiscent of liquid granite, with grip and light. It's a sharp vintage of Tumba del Rey Moro. 1,712 bottles produced. It was bottled in April 2023.
