Alaya Tierra , a remarkable red wine from the esteemed Bodegas Atalaya, showcases the unique characteristics of the Garnacha variety in its 2022 vintage. Grown in old Garnacha Tintorera vineyards situated about 1,000 meters above sea level, the grapes benefit from a mix of limestone and sandy soils that provide excellent drainage. With a low yield, the small, concentrated bunches produce an expressive wine that reflects the terroir.

This wine undergoes a meticulous process, starting with maceration and fermentation in small stainless steel tanks, followed by malolactic fermentation. It matures in French and American oak barrels for 15 months, allowing it to develop complexity and depth. The result is a wine with an intense picota color and a high layer that reveals vibrant red tones.

On the nose, Alaya Tierra presents an intriguing and complex aromatic profile, highlighted by notes of ripe black and red fruits, alongside delightful hints of new wood and mineral undertones. On the palate, it is broad, powerful, and dense, showcasing a mature character with well-balanced acidity and a silky texture. The wine surprises with an original sweetness that leads into a long, lingering finish.

Alaya Tierra pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes, making it an ideal companion for game meat and rich rice dishes, stewed legumes, mushrooms, both game and poultry, casseroles, fish, and seafood in sauce. It also complements smoked foods, aged cheeses, and grilled white and red meats, making it a versatile choice for any dining occasion. Indulge in the exquisite complexity of Alaya Tierra and elevate your culinary experiences with this exceptional wine.
