About this product
Spain's most celebrated old-vine Garnacha — from Alto Moncayo's ancient vine parcels at 700m on the Moncayo mountain. Parker's 'world's greatest Grenache outside France'. Fermented in concrete, aged 20+ months in French barriques (new). Opaque ruby-black; extraordinary concentration of blackberry, plum compote, dark chocolate, liquorice, dried herbs, and a spicy mountain mineral. Requires 10 years; exceptional for 25+.

The supreme Campo de Borja pairing — the concentrated power of Aquilón with the richest, most delicate lamb in Spain; the wine's dark fruit concentration is balanced by the milk-fed lamb's extraordinary tenderness.

complement
Old-vine Garnacha's concentrated dark fruit and mountain herb character aligns with the most marbled cut of Iberico pork; black garlic's depth mirrors the wine's own earthy complexity.

complement
The wine's enormous concentration and dark fruit requires aged Manchego's crystalline force; truffle honey bridges Aquilón's dark mineral depth to the cheese's rich, nutty character.
