2013 Jimenez Landi Ataulfos

The Ataulfos comes from a 1 hectare plot of Garnacha grapes (grenache) . Biodynamic viticulture with as little intervention as possible during vinification. Partially unsettled. After maceration and fermentation, the wine rests for about 14 months in French oak barrels. The wine has a beautifully sharp bouquet with dark berries , roasted herbs , white fennel and a tincture of something exotic , perhaps wild honey and apricot blossom . The taste is medium-bodied and very harmonious. E and Grenache that is beautifully balanced with a perfect acidity. This is one of those wines that cannot grasp words : just pure, unadulterated , expressive Grenache that is nothing less than world class . Drink 2016-2025 +

If you are looking for Grenache that is understated , complex, full of character and honest , without resorting to new oak or appearance , then look no further than the beautiful and rather brilliant wines of Bodegas Jimenez - Landi. Super elegant wine and best to carve and pour this wine into a wide burgundy glass.
