Grown at 750-900 metres altitude in the Region of Almansa bordering Valencia and Murcia, the vines are 45-60 years old. Bodegas Piqueras grow dry-farmed bush vines, planted in cool and sandy plots to obtain a wine with sweeter tannins whilst preserving the fruit on the palate. There is scarce rainfall and organic farming methods & sustainable winery practices are used. The grapes are hand harvested and the wine spends 6-8 months in American oak.
The Bodegas Piqueras, Old Vine Garnacha is a rich and full-bodied red wine, deep in colour with an extensive range of ripe dark fruit and wild fresh herbs. Smooth juicy tannins and good levels of natural acidity combine to offer a wine full of flavour.
