Gran Cerdo Tempranillo

Gran Cerdo Tempranillo is all about the purest expression of fruit with whole bunch fermentation, no filtration, no stabilization and minimal sulphur. The wine has real character, all the juicy elements of Tempranillo, with no dirty oak to mask its charms. It has a natural way about it but with no funkiness.

With its cherry-red, purplish, brilliant colour the Gran Cerdo Tempranillo 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. Mar and Wii Gonzalo have produced a wine that shows an intoxicating combination of red and dark berries, faint lavender (or violets) and a slightly earthy edge. The herbacious flavours gives the wine a slight green finish with a little spice, while the tannin and acidity cry out for some red meat.

The back label...  Gran Cerdo is a great wine dedicated to the bank executives that denied loans to us on the basis that wine is not a seizable asset. One day, these greasy and sweaty corporate suits will find that the best things in life cannot be impounded. Thanks to our friends help, we were finally able to bottle this wine. Now you can enjoy it with pasta or ham.

Gran Cerdo wines are created by larger than life couple, Mar and Wii Gonzalo. Proving you can make a fantastic wine, following organic and biodynamic practices, at an affordable price. A lot like the other two wines from the Gonzalo's, this is unbelievably good value and a proper good sipper! They have chosen to completely declassify their wines, to allow them to work outside of any control or law from any DOC, so they can make the very best wine possible from their amazing vineyards. This is just terrific wine and absolutely, and justifiably, one of our favourites.
