Las Pizarras Viña Acered
Country: Spain
Region: Calatayud
Grapes: Garnacha
Vintage: 2021
Las Pizarras is the organic winemaking project of Belgium born Mark Schiettekat who has been working with Garnacha in the Aragon DO of Calatayud since 1992. Surrounded by mountains, the vineyards lie at between 800 and 1100 metres above sea level, where the difference between day and night temperatures regularly exceeds 20 degrees, concentrating acidity and giving the wines tremendous lift and elegance.
Viña Acered is 100% Garnacha from a small sloping plot of old vines surrounded by almond, peach and cherry trees. A pure and detailed nose of sweet red berries and cherries, exotic spices and violets. Silky on the palate with some deeper fruit notes and a slate-y minerality.
