Atalaya Laya Red 2022 - 750ml
Atalaya Laya Red 2022 - 750ml
90pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The juicy and leafy 2022 Laya was produced with 70% Garnacha Tintorera and 30% Monastrell, looking for a fruit-driven and easy-to-drink red with 14.5% alcohol, ripe fruit and a soft texture. It's clean, expressive and fruit-driven, with pungent flavors and round tannins. It keeps its poise in the warm 2022. It matured in French oak barrels for four months.
Winemaker Notes
A peculiar wine that combines complexity, structure and an intense covered cherry red color. Elegant, fresh and complex nose where ripe fruits and floral notes are appreciated. Pleasant and fresh entry on the palate, balanced and with sweet tannins, although youthful, unctuous and enveloping, with an original and interesting mid palate and a long finish.
State vineyards located between 2,300 and 3,300 feet above sea level on poor, sandy soils rich in limestone. Vineyards are dry-farmed, without the use of pesticides or herbicides, and the grapes are hand harvested. The wine ferments in stainless steel and then ages for 4 months in French oak barrels.
