Vallunco

In the glass

Aroma: wild cherry, red berries, herbs, earth, light spice, dried flowers

Palate: tart cherry, earthy mineral, fresh herbs, racy acidity, delicate tannin

A single-parcel natural-wine Tinto Fino from the Vallunco plot, with greater depth and precision than the estate Goyo, showing wild berry, earthy mineral and vivid acidity from old ungrafted vines.

What it pairs with

• Stuffed piquillo peppers with lamb
  The wine's freshness and acidity cut through the richness of stuffed peppers.
• Roast chicken with garlic
  The delicate body and bright acidity suit simpler roasted poultry.
• Mild fresh cheese (cuajada)
  Delicate dairy and the wine's earthy acidity create a light, elegant combination.

History

Vallunco is Goyo Garcia Viadero's single-parcel natural wine from the named Vallunco plot, first produced with the 2005 harvest. It is sourced from some of the estate's oldest ungrafted Tinto Fino vines.
