Bodegas Gil Berzal Garnacha

From Gil Berzal's organically farmed estate in Laguardia, this Garnacha is grown on high-altitude, rocky chalk, sand, and clay soils. Fermented with wild yeasts in concrete — the way Gil Berzal does everything — it's ripe and bold, with intense red and dark fruit, fine tannins, and a graceful, mineral-edged finish. Authentic Rioja Alavesa at its most forthright.

Food Pairing: Grilled lamb chops, chorizo, tapas, roast chicken, mild aged cheeses
