Vinous Joaquin Hidalgo - 20 Oct 25
The 2021 Tumba del Rey Moro is 100% Garnacha from Villanueva de Ávila, sourced from 1,100 ungrafted vines planted in sandy granite soils with a touch of silt. It offers aromas of cherry, sour cherry, violet, rose and fig skin. Silk-textured, juicy and moderate in weight, the 2021 concludes with a long, complete finish. Balanced and finely structured, it integrates all of its elements with delicate poise.
