Pegaso Zeta, Compania de Vinos Telmo Rodriguez 2019

2019 was a warm and challenging year with frost in March, hail in the summer and rains close to the harvest date in Gredos. The 2019 Pegaso Zeta was produced with old vine Garnacha on granite and schist soils; it fermented with indigenous yeasts in oak and stainless steel vats and amphorae, and it matured in a combination of 500- and 600-liter barrels, amphorae and stainless steel for 12 months. It's aromatic and expressive, with red fruit and herbs and unnoticeable oak. It's round and juicy, powerful and balanced with some grainy tannins. It's a wine that should do very well with food. 17,021 bottles produced. It was bottled in August 2020. Drink 2021 - 2026.
