Bodegas Edetaria Finca La Personal Old Vine Garnacha Peluda 2018

Finca La Personal is the most intimate and expressive cuvée from Bodegas Edetària, located in Terra Alta, Catalonia. It’s crafted entirely from Garnacha Peluda—a rare, softer-leafed variant of Garnacha known for producing wines with elegance, freshness, and fine tannins. The grapes come from a single, old-vine parcel grown in panal soils (ancient wind-blown sediments rich in limestone), and the 2018 vintage is a pure, terroir-driven expression. Hand-harvested, naturally fermented, and matured in 500L French oak barrels for 12 months, followed by further bottle ageing before release.

Bouquet
Refined and aromatic, with red plum, wild strawberry, and dried fig layered over crushed herbs, dusty earth, and rose petals. Subtle notes of smoked paprika, spice box, and wet stone speak of its Mediterranean origins and old-vine complexity.

Palate
Silky and structured, yet lifted and pure. Ripe red berries and soft plum flow across the palate, backed by fine-grained tannins and a mineral-laced core. There’s a savoury dimension of dried thyme, graphite, and spice, all wrapped in a long, elegant finish. Beautifully restrained with impressive depth and finesse.

Food Pairing
An excellent match for Catalan lamb stew, chargrilled vegetables, mushroom ragù, or aged Manchego. Also pairs beautifully with venison or a herb-crusted pork loin. Serve lightly decanted to fully reveal its nuance.

Cellaring
This wine is drinking beautifully now but will evolve gracefully. Enjoy from now through 2032. Store in a cool, dark cellar to preserve its structure and aromatic detail.
