Venta La Vega Adaras Aldea Garnacha Tintorera Syrah 2021

Raúl Pérez is one of the most exciting growers in our portfolio, but also one of the most challenging to manage as the tiny Australian allocations of wines he produces under his own name arrive and disappear very quickly each year. While at home in the Bierzo region of Galicia, Raúl is also known for the many projects he is involved in further afield. These are almost always micro in scale and just as hard to come by as his 'own' wines - normally with prices to match! There is, however, one exception... Venta La Vega! 

When locking our Raúl Pérez allocation in a couple of years ago we were stunned to be offered a parcel of exceptionally well-priced wines from Venta La Vega - an organic, very high-altitude Garnacha Tintorera vineyard in Almansa. Raúl guides the project as oenologist, with none other than José Ángel Martínez from Envínate in place as winemaker. With two of the leading figures in the radical new winemaking movement in Spain at the helm, expectations should be very high!
