The Sierra de Gredos in central Spain is one of the most exciting regions for old-vine Garnacha, and Soto Manrique are a serious name there. Cruz Verde comes from granite soils at 700 metres and the wine has that delicate, floral quality that granitic Garnacha is known for: light in colour, with talcum powder, citrus and red fruit rather than the heavy, jammy style. It's the kind of wine that makes you think differently about Garnacha.
Grapes for Camino de la Cruz Verde (13,000 bottles) are sourced from a silt-granitic area at 700m above sea level. Despite the low elevation by Cebreros standards, these are usually the latest grapes to be picked and the wine is delicate and fresh with floral (talcum powder) and citrus notes. 100% Garnacha
Charcuterie, roast chicken, mushroom dishes and lighter red meat.
