Product Description
Details
Coming from DO Cariñena (a region in Aragón not to be confused with the grape variety of the same name), the wine Mas de Mancuso Garnacha is a noteworthy Spanish red wine which demonstrates that DO Cariñena has all the markings of a great wine region.
Produced by bodega Mas de Mancuso, the project of famed winemaker Jorge Navascués, this varietal red wine from DO Cariñena is sourced from vineyards with slate, clay and marl soils, planted at approximately 650 metres above sea level near Almonacid de la Sierra, a cool area surrounded by forests.
The hand-picked grapes were partially destemmed (60%) and then the wine must was cold-macerated for about 48 hours. After that, the wine was fermented in open stainless steel tanks for 40 days, with periodic pump-overs.
Then the red wine Mas de Mancuso Garnacha 2019 was aged for 16 months in 2nd year French oak barrels.
Complex and intense, this Crianza red wine should be decanted for some time before drinking.

Mancuso!!
Straight to the top of my 'Great Spanish Garnachas' ranking. Impressive concentration, very expressive, with real elegance and tons of acidity. Super kosher wine
