Tasting note for Red Wine Senda Garnacha:

Garnacha very varietal floral aromas, plum, scrubland and a very mineral background, characteristic of granitic soil, prevailing the variety on a subtle wood.

The palate is fresh and aromatic, with a long finish and long persistence.

Although this winery is within a young denomination of origin, the garnacha vineyards from which this wine comes are almost centennial. It was the first winery in this area that opted for the potential of the Garnacha for the production of high quality wine, and since then they continue to investigate to integrate the vineyards that were disappearing by default. This vineyard, Pago Los Castillejos, in the sub-area of San Martín from which the winery takes its name, is located in the highest part of the town, 860 meters high, in the Sierra Norte de Madrid.
