Vinification

Grapes are harvested from a single vineyard at 4,800’, cold soak macerated for 5 days, then aged in French oak barriques for 7 months before bottling.

Notes from critics

This is showing at least as well as the amazing 2018 vintage we also carry. There are subtle differences, but there is definitely a consistency of excellence here. There is a lot going on here. Floral notes met with great ripe red and black fruits that are complimented by baking spices, cocoa and caramel, with hints of dried herbs and underlying earthy notes. The mouthfeel is full and lush and the finish just begs for another sip. Get some!

99

The 2020 Gran Enemigo Gualtallary Single Vineyard is nothing but phenomenal. It's very fresh and balanced and, for a warm year like 2020, doesn't show any heat or excess; it's subtle and has an ethereal character within the powerful and exuberant character from Gualtallary. It fermented in concrete with indigenous yeasts and some full clusters, sometimes up to 70% of the volume. It's intense and powerful, but something makes if feel light on its feet and with great inner power. This is still young and should develop nicely in bottle and for a long time.

97

Ink and licorice with blackberry and black olive aromas. Medium-to full-bodied with round, fine tannins that are crunchy and refined. It has a juicy undertone and a savory finish. Just a hint of cedar and caramel at the end.
