Mountain Grit: Tierra Calma Cyster Garnacha 2020
Tasting Notes
Inky cherry with a faint bluish edge—visually striking, emotionally stirring. On the nose, red-plum fruit pushes through petals and just a hint of wood-shavings from aging. On the palate, it’s fresh yet creamy, layered with raspberry, cherry, and herbal lift. Long finish that’s both intense and elegant—balanced power, full-bodied finesse.
Meet the Winemaker
Tierra Calma honors the Cistercian monks—true grape pioneers in Madrid’s rugged Sierra de Gredos. Their Cyster blend draws from micro-plots of old bush vines (650–700 m elevation) planted in granite-sandy soils with both north and south exposures. Little oxygen, much authenticity.
