Bodegas y Vińedos Ponce, Bobal Viñas Viejas “Clos Lojen”, Manchuela, Spain 2021
{biodynamic} 100% Bobal
FRESH, BRIGHT RASPBERRY, WEIGHTLESS BUT STRUCTURED
At just the age of 23, Juan Antonio Ponce (pronounced Pon-thay) started Bodegas Ponce in 2005 with an approach that is both fashionably and traditionally low-intervention. Biodynamic farming techniques, low levels of sulfur dioxide, and wild yeast fermentation all help result in a carefully crafted wine with balanced acidity and tannin. This Bobal checks all the boxes for a low-alcohol, natural, and chillable red!
Serving Suggestion: Manchego until the cows (I mean sheep!) come home. Grilled toasts w/ olive oil, avocado, & jamon topped by a fried egg sprinkled with Spanish paprika.
