Finca la Pared covers 10 hectares in the Sonsierra Navarra, at an altitude of 474 meters above sea level, at the foothills of Sierra de Codés in Somontano de Viana-Los Arcos, in the Navarra Designation of Origin. Vines are over 20 years old and are planted on rugged terrains with strong undulations and an open, U shaped relief, marked by cool temperatures. This results in an estate with two exposures, north and south. The northern exposure is ideal for Merlot and Chardonnay and the southern-facing part, for Syrah.
Fermentation and maceration are carried out separately for each variety, in small stainless steel tanks, combining pumpovers and délestages. Grapes are gently pressed and the wine undergo malolactic fermentation in even smaller stainless steel tanks. When the wine has naturally lost its thickest suspended solids, it is transferred to barrels; each variety separately and in oak of different origins.
Graciano is aged in hand-crafted, fine-grained French oak barrels. Syrah is aged in American oak barrels that enhance the freshness of the wine and its refinement. The wine is aged for 12 to 14 months in the same barrels without racking. Then the wine is blended and bottled without fining.
The Cuvee Especial is a Graciano and Syrah blend aged in oak barrels that produces a full-bodied, fresh wine of great complexity and long lasting finish.
2019 Finca La Pared Cuvee Especial - 94 PTS - JS
"A deep, brooding nose with lots of fine oak spices and hazelnuts that adorn the blackberries and violets. Succulent and bright on the palate, with caressing, silky tannins dialing into the black and blue fruit. Quite long and subtle. Delicious now, but can hold, too."
