🍷 Soto Manrique – La Transición GarnachaCountry: Spain | Region: Sierra de Gredos (Castilla y León)Appellation: Vino de la Tierra de Castilla y León | Grape Variety: 100% GarnachaStyle: Still Red Wine | Winemaking: Fermented with native yeasts and aged in concrete and large oak vats to preserve freshness and highlight terroir expressionFarming: Organically farmed old-vine Garnacha from high-altitude, granitic soils in the Gredos mountains 🌟 A graceful mountain Garnacha—bright, floral, and elegantly structured. 👁 In the Glass:Clear cherry red with ruby hues—luminous and delicate. 👃 On the Nose:Fresh and aromatic. Bursting with redcurrant, raspberry, and wild strawberry, lifted by hints of violet, rosemary, and crushed herbs. 👅 On the Palate:Silky and vibrant. Juicy red fruit meets lively acidity and ultra-fine tannins, creating a palate that’s light yet expressive. The finish is long, savoury, and almost Burgundian in its finesse. 🍽 Food Pairing:Ideal with grilled duck, charred vegetables, herb-roasted chicken, or soft cheeses. A Garnacha that complements both delicate and earthy flavours. ⏳ Ageing Potential:Beautiful now for its brightness, or cellar for 4–6 years to allow further nuance to emerge. ✨ Why You’ll Love It:La Transición captures Garnacha in its most elegant form—pure, fresh, and terroir-driven, with a finesse that recalls fine Pinot Noir. A wine of mountain energy and minimalist beauty.
