The Story Behind the Bottle
Nicknamed El Escocés Volante (the Flying Scotsman), Norrel Robertson is one of only four Masters of Wine in Spain. He travelled the world making wine before settling there in 2003. He fell in love with the ancient Garnacha vines of Calatayud and now can’t drag himself away. This is his King of Garnacha red, from very old vineyards (50–115 years) at a lofty 1,000m. There, blazing daytime sunshine ripens the grapes, while cold nights draw out the aromas and ensure excellent structure for this long-lived wine. Most other growers have abandoned their vineyards here – it’s too hard to make a living. But Norrel teases out the very best from his grapes to make this exceptional, oak-aged red. Decant early or cellar.
