This is like a more intense version of the Selección Personal, with the imprint of the 2016 vintage, floral aromas, a clean nose with complexity and elegance, showing very young but nuanced. They are forced to select looser bunches to be able to de stem the grapes by hand, and the grapes are more perfect, less compact and perhaps with a higher ratio of skin to juice. This explains the intensity of the Grano a Grano wines. The palate is balanced, with very good freshness and refined tannins.
The 2011 Tempranillo Grano a Grano is selected from the oldest plots. The bunches are hand-destemmed, and the grapes fermented in 1,200-kilo inox vats then transferred to new barrels for malolactic and 18 months aging. Having had that treatment, the nose has plenty of wild berries and some violets, and the smoky/spicy notes are still abundant but do not dominate the nose. The palate is however, quite marked by the élevage and will require time to absorb the oak. This is a modern, well-oaked Tempranillo for fans of the style, with good concentration and power, but perhaps the élevage erases the mark of the place. It should be better with time in bottle as the wood receded after a few days of being opened.
