Bodegas Atalaya Alaya is a full-bodied Spanish red wine made from 100% Garnacha Tintorera, sourced from 50-year-old vines planted at roughly 1,000 metres above sea level in Almansa. The vines grow on limestone and sandy soils in a DO between La Mancha and the Mediterranean coast.
After harvest, malolactic fermentation is carried out in new French and American oak barrels, followed by 15 months of ageing in the same vessels. Garnacha Tintorera is a teinturier grape whose flesh is red rather than clear.
The nose opens with brooding black cherry and cassis, then elderberry, Mediterranean herbs and violet leaf. The palate is rich and juicy, with concentrated black and red fruit, ripe plum, blackberry compote, earthy undertones and polished tannins. The finish is long and warming, with dark fruit, worn leather and baking spice.
