Light My Fire Garnacha Tintorera

Come on baby, light my fire. Try to set the night on fire.

Produced from 100% Garnacha Tintoera grapes and aged for nine months in French and American oak barrels.  Intense red in colour, almost black at the core.  The nose has aromas of black fruit, spice and a vegetal edge.  Intense, ripe dark fruit, almost candied flavours with a warming, rich texture.  Full on but delicious!

The vines are planted in goblet and vertically trellised systems in poor, stony limestone soils in vineyards situated in La Font de La Figuera in the interior of the province of Valencia.
Thanks to the dry climate and low rainfall we practice sustainable and ecological winegrowing as has always been practiced traditionally in the area.

Pairs perfectly with traditional meat stews, soups, and pasta dishes.

“Light my fire” was the first song written by Robby Krieger, The Doors’ guitarist. Apparently, Jim Morrison asked his fellow band members for help to write some songs. Krieger asked him what he could write about and Morrison answered something universal. So, Krieger was inspired by the four elements: Earth, Wind, Sea and Fire, although later he would only concentrate on one of them, Fire; influenced by “Play with Fire” by The Rolling Stones. On 12th December 1970, “Light my fire” was the last song Jim Morrison sang at The Warehouse de New Orleans before his death in Paris on 3rd July 1971.
