Thought the Americas didn’t have wine tradition? Think again. This Carignan is hand-harvested from a plot planted in 1915, with tiny yields and a retro pruning system. Clean and fresh, its evocative notes of sour cherry, dried cranberry and Provençal herbs are intense, yet the overall effect is still polished. Think of it as history in a bottle.
About the producer
Las Veletas (‘the weather vanes’) is a partnership between renowned enologist Rafael Tirado and Raúl Dell’Oro, owner of this old-established wine estate in San Javier lined with old Carignan and País vines. The project began in 1998 with the aim of making good wine for family and friends, driven by an agenda of experimentation and imagination. Things have expanded since, but there’s still a strict policy of quality over quantity.
