About This Wine


Espaldera

Garnacha

Our Espaldera Garnacha is a delicious testament to the connection between vineyard and varietal. In classic Spanish Garnacha style, this wine showcases prickly spice and red fruit flavors alongside savory, earthy characteristics. This complexity elevates it from a casual dinner companion to a dependable date-night pairing. Spain's Mediterranean climate allows Garnacha grapes to experience a long, temperate summer. These vines are well-suited to warm weather and grow in a diverse mixture of soils that shape the wine's layers of flavor and texture. Our local winemaking partners closely monitor growth throughout the season to select the ideal time for harvest. Finally, fermentation turns nature's bounty into a treat we can enjoy for years to come. We invite you to take a sip and share this beautiful journey from soil to glass.

Wine Region


Spain

While its reputation as a serious wine destination was eclipsed by France and Italy for many years, ignoring Spain today means missing out on some of the world's most exciting wines. Enjoying hundreds of miles of sun-kissed coastline and rocky interiors at higher elevations, Spain provides an ideal location for vineyards. Whether it is sparkling cavas from Catalonia, crisp Verdejos from Rueda, sublime Tempranillos from Ribera del Duero or inky Monastrells from Valencia, Spain has many wine styles to explore, all expressing the country's wildly unique terroir.
