L'avis des experts

Jancis Robinson:

"This is a wine that says 'fun' to me. Majestic promise us that it is made from 'ancient, wild vines' and that it has 'a Burgundian minerality, with subtle French oak' - quite an achievement! The grapes are grown on the north-facing slopes of the Moncayo in the Ebro Valley in northern Spain, with a high proportion of slate and pebbles, and spent five months in new French oak, apparently - which makes it quite a bargain. Grapes were not picked until the second half of October and were hand harvested." 

Tim Atkin - UK Master of Wine:

"This youthful, strikingly packaged Garnacha comes from the Ribera del Quielles region of northern Spain. It's made from young vines - hence, in part, its juiciness - and it's a stunner, with lots of sweet bramble and raspberry fruit, hints of pepper and clove spice and a palate-cleansing finish. If you like your Garnacha fresh rather than baked, you'll love this wine."
