This Garnacha Tinta originates from the Los Peros vineyard, located at 850 metres above sea level with vines around 100 years old growing in granitic soils with red granite outcrops. The vineyard is part of a Special Protection Area for Birds and the Natura 2000 network. It is dry-farmed and organically cultivated, registered with the CAEM. The grapes are harvested manually in 15 kg crates, undergo spontaneous fermentation with gentle maceration for 60 days, and are aged for one year in 500-litre French oak barrels.

Compared to Valautín 2022, Los Peros is much jammier. But it's still charming, beautiful, and sophisticated. Notes of strawberry, fried nuts, night flowers, and earthy undertones. Like Valautín, it shines more on the palate with balance, juiciness, and a slightly bitter herb-like finish. Definitely a neat wine.

Curro Bareño and Jesús Olivares, already experienced with challenging regions through their Fedellos do Couto and Peixes projects (which they later merged into simply Fedellos), embraced the challenge of Gredos, finding old vineyards. In 2016, they founded a new winery called Ca' di Mat, meaning House of Fools in Piedmontese, reflecting the founders' adventurous spirit and willingness to take risks in exploring and reviving lesser-known wine regions. Their approach hasn't changed much, with a focus on minimal intervention and respect for the environment, but here they reveal a different terroir.
