Rico Nuevo Cebreros Jiron de Niebla 2020

$3499

Garnacha from the high granite terraces of Cebreros in the Sierra de Gredos, where cool nights and poor soils give wines of perfume and energy. Rico Nuevo is a family estate working old bush vines across scattered micro-parcels, farming organically with a hands-off approach in the cellar. Jiron de Niebla (a nod to El Sotillo's old vines) is one of their single-site Garnachas, vinified in steel, concrete and old wood to capture the site without oak getting in the way. Ethereal and savory in the new Gredos mold.

"The 2020 Jirón de Niebla is the most delicate and palest of their reds. It comes from vines in the north-facing paraje El Sotillo from Burgohondo, a shady zone with sandy soils that is mentioned on the label and is one of the parajes approved by the appellation. It was a long harvest, and they could pick the grapes at their peak. They used more full clusters, perhaps 40%, and matured exclusively in concrete and Flextank eggs. It's aromatic, floral, clean, elegant and expressive, serious, and it reflects the cooler place and the granite soils. It has 13.5% alcohol, very good balance and a sense of purity and elegance. 4,867 bottles were filled in July 2022." —Luis Gutiérrez
