Fresh fruit notes with moderate tannins, developing complexity

The 2022 vintage from Vinyes Singulars is youthfully vibrant with ample acidity and moderate tannins typical of Garnacha from Catalonia. Given the quality and structure, a drinking window beginning 2 years after release ensures fruit and freshness balance well with developing tertiary characteristics through about year 8-10 post vintage.
