Wii Gonzalo Grijalba, ‘Gran Cerdo’ Tempranillo

Gran Cerdo is the purest expression of Tempranillo grape. The wine is made with whole bunch fermentation method, no filtration or stabilization and minimal use of sulphites. The wine has real character, all the juicy elements of Tempranillo, with no oak to mask its charm. With its cherry-red, purplish, brilliant colour, Gran Cerdo reveals primary notes of fresh fruit, strawberries, raspberries, cherries and violets with clean mineral tones from the granite. This little natural wine is phenomenal value. Wii Gonzalo Grijalba was born in Logroño, Spain and grew up among the vineyards that his parents cultivated in Fuenmayor. Fiercely protective of the terroir of his family vineyards Gonzalo farms vines with Biodynamic and natural principles. He rejects market driven fashions, formulae, chemical treatments and conformism. Instead he has sought out his own methods with respect for the land, his vineyards, and the traditions of his forefathers.
