La Maldita or the “little cursed one” references the care and effort associated with growing the delicate garnacha grape in rioja — but we’ve never been afraid of a challenge. This “little curse” has become our good fortune; producing high quality wine that celebrates heritage and showcases some of rioja’s best.
REGION
A trendy red; fresh and easy to drink. A nimble wine from old vines in Tudelilla and Central Rioja. Part of the wine (30%) was aged in barrels for three months, while the rest matured on the lees in tanks.
VINEYARD
More than 40 years old Garnacha Tinta vineyards, located at 2297 ft altitude in Tudelilla, Rioja Baja, and 1476 ft in Villamediana and Alberite, Central Rioja.
TASTING NOTES
This delightful garnacha is based on old-vines on high altitude vineyards to create a rich, velvety red with wonderful notes of strawberry and cherry. Enjoy with chicken, grilled meats, seafood and a variety of cheeses.
