2016 | Grandes Vinos Y Viñedos | Monasterio de Las Vinas Garnacha Old Vines

Raisiny plum and strawberry aromas are candied and jumpy. Next, a lush palate is both jammy and sappy in feel, while this tastes of raisin and cherry smothered in oak. A warm finish sticks to the candied script.

Producer Information

Grandes Vinos Y Viñedos (often referred to simply as Grandes Vinos) is a wine producer based in the town of Cariñena in the Cariñena region of northeast Spain, just southwest of the city of Zaragoza. The company produces a large range of wines but is best-known for the Carinena (Carignan) and Garnacha (Grenache) grape varieties. The company was established in 1997 when a number of regional cooperatives and grapegrower associations (Nuestra Señora del Pilar de Villanueva de Huerva, San Roque de Alfamén, San José de Aguarón, San Bernabé de Cosuenda and the Sociedad Agraria de Transformación de Cariñena) combined to form the Grandes Vinos Y Viñedos cooperative. The company counts around 700 grapegrowers from the Cariñena region, covering around 4500 hectares (11,000 acres) with a range of grape varieties. Although the the Cariñena grape is synonymous with the region, it is only the fifth most-grown variety across the winery holdings. Production is predominantly red with Garnacha and Tempranillo taking the lion's share and accounting for over half of production. The remainder is covered by the Spanish white Macabeo the more "international" reds of Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Merlot. Small amounts of Chardonnay, Garnacha Blanca, Muscat of Alexandria, Juan Ibañez and Sauvignon Blanc are also produced. A number of ranges are made by the winery including the Anayón, Corona de Aragón, Monasterio de las Viñas, 3C, Beso de Vino, El Circo, Hoy, 49 Million and Iglup brands. Most wines are varietally labeled and a number of Cavas are also made under the Ramiro II label (the 49 Million range also covers sparkling wines).
