The production of Las Rocas has been reduced to focus on exceptional vineyards of old-vine Garnacha planted on complementary soils. Fermentations are spontaneous with up to 50% whole clusters. Macerations are gentler and shorter, resulting in a more ethereal expression that preserves Garnacha’s spicy and herbal aromas, which can be lost to over-extraction. Aging in wood has been reduced to a tiny fraction in Radoux barrels, with most of the wine resting in concrete tulips and eggs.
