Overview

Fuerza Bruta comes from Dehesa de Navayuncosa, a single vineyard of 60-year-old Garnacha planted on deep sand near the village of Aldea del Fresno, just across the border separating Mentrida from Vinos de Madrid. The uniqueness of this site results in a wine that captures the ethereal but persistent expression normally associated with Garnacha planted a far higher altitudes. If any wine at A Pie de Tierra captures the old Pinot adage, an iron fist in a silk glove, it would be Fuerza Bruta.
