General Information
Fruit of sustainable viticulture, Dominio de Fontana Garnacha & Syrah 2021 originates from a selected handful of vineyards from the Santa Cruz and Cueva plots, terroirs of the D.O. Uclés, located at an altitude between 700 and 900 meters above sea level.
In this coupage, Bodegas Fontana strives to preserve the unique character of the two varieties that compose it, the native garnacha and the foreign syrah, the latter perfectly adapted to Castilian lands. Both were vinified separately, in an artisanal production, whose proportion varies from harvest to harvest, with the sole objective of achieving a harmonious and rounded red wine, with pleasant freshness and fruity intensity, like this Dominio de Fontana Garnacha & Syrah 2021 that the Club suggests to you. Enjoy it with cured cheeses, all kinds of meats, especially roasts and game stews, and even chocolate desserts.
