Las Pedreras Los Arroyuelos Garnacha 2023 Review
Winemaker Bárbara Requejo Frutos taps into the terroir of Spain’s high-elevation Sierra de Gredos region to craft singular, elegant expressions of Garnacha. She makes the Las Pedreras wines in collaboration with Guzmán Sánchez de la Parra, a native of the local mountain village Villanueva de Avila. The Los Arroyuelos bottling is made with Garnacha sourced from seven organically-farmed, 70-plus-year-old vineyards in the villages of Villanueva, Navatalgordo, and Burgohondo. The wine is delicate at first, so we recommend throwing it in a decanter or keeping the bottle open for about 20 to 30 minutes to let its wonderful character show. If you wait, you’ll be rewarded with notes of rich red cherries in syrup, wild strawberries, black raspberries, and an intense minerality.
