The Spanish region of Almansa, located just inland from Valencia, is undergoing a Renaissance led by winemaker Raul Perez. His certified organic Ternario 10 bottling features the grape Garnacha Tintorera, also known as Alicante Bouschet in France and Portugal. Grown on old bush vines and aged for 10 months in neutral French oak, this beautifully structured wine delivers earthy mineral notes of crushed graphite and slate, backed by savory fig cake, blackberry, leather and tar undertones.
