Vitícola Mentridana - El Mentridano

Vintage: 2021
Description: The Sierra de Gredos is an area of rugged granite peaks, forests, and hilltop towns southwest of Madrid. The combination of high altitude, free-draining granitic soils, and a long growing season gives it a unique micro-climate. Vines cling to scree-slopes like mountain goats, many of these sites were abandoned decades ago, but a new generation of growers is rediscovering them. Dani Landi is one of the pioneers working with old-vine Garnacha. With a handful of other pioneering winemakers, he has defined a new style of Garnacha – one that is light in color but intensely flavored, elegant, and mineral-driven. After only a few decades, Dani has gone from obscurity to one of the most lauded winemakers in the world. Curro Barreño, one-half of the genius behind the Galician project Fedellos, also grew up in the Gredos. He's a childhood friend
