Just as juicily packed with fruit as the 2017, possibly a little less structured and tannic, and already great fun to drink. There is a joyous nose of dark cherry, damson and raspberry, all backed by a lively pepperiness. Smooth and supple and not in any way heavy (which is something lesser Garnachas can lean towards).

Tuck into this glorious, vibrant, rose-petal and stewed strawberry-sweet garnacha — one and the same as grenache — with garlicky charcuterie, and you and yours will have a great time. It comes from the deep stony soil of Cariñena, one of the earliest places in Spain to be demarcated.Jane MacQuitty, The Times (Jul 2020)
Bodegas y Viñedos Monfil
This family run Bodega has been growing grapes in the Campo de Cariñena since 1945, but only bottling their own wines since 2004 when the three siblings Victor, Maria and Ana took the reins. With beautiful, very old vineyard holdings the fruit they grow is incredible on their gnarly old bush vines. Great quality wine being made here offering stunning value. The Cariñena DO was created in 1932, making it one of the oldest protected growing regions of Europe, at the same time as being the largest vineyard area in the northern region of Aragón.
