Garmón is the brainchild of Mariano García, Vega-Sicília’s long-standing former oenologist and current co-owner of Aalto. The 2018 vintage is only the 5th vintage released of this new Ribera del Duero, which is made with 100% Tempranillo grapes. After spending 20 months in French oak barrels, the wine was bottled in September 2020 at 14.5% ABV. It is an aromatic, refined wine, marked by notes of red berries, with hints of oak and fennel. Presented here in a magnum format.

The only wine they produce here, the 2018 Garmón is pure Tempranillo from different villages with a continental climate, old organically and biodynamically farmed vineyards that are not certified. It fermented by village with indigenous yeasts and matured in 225-liter French oak barrels for 20 months. This reflects the cooler character of the year, and they maybe used a little more used oak (50/50). The wine is fresher, has a lot more acidity and is aromatic and open, with a better balance without losing structure. This is the finest wine they have produced so far, and they told me this is the kind of wine they wanted to make in Ribera del Duero, the Mauro style with finesse and elegance. It brought me to the character of the wines from yesteryear, rustic but with elegance, full of character and with energy and aging potential. 50,120 bottles produced. It was bottled in September 2020. - Luis Gutierrez - The only wine they produce here, the 2018 Garmón is pure Tempranillo from different villages with a continental climate, old organically and biodynamically farmed vineyards that are not certified.
