2024 Albahra
A seriously good-value Mediterranean red from Envínate, blending Garnacha Tintorera, Moravia Agria & Garnacha Tinta. The grapes are fermented separately with varying amounts of whole bunch, then raised in concrete, barrels & foudres, giving the wine a beautiful balance of freshness, earth & structure. The nose is subtle & harmonious, all wild berries, flowers & herbs with a spicy, earthy edge. A dry, energetic red that manages to be both serious & eminently drinkable — a lovely expression of its warm, dry birthplace, with freshness keeping everything in check.
