Brega is an artisanal wine produced from the original Garnacha (Tinta de Aragón), which was first cultivated in Aragón in the 7th century and spread around the Mediterranean by the Kingdom of Aragón. Calatayud is Spain's highest altitude DO for Garnacha, which results in drastic diurnal shifts of up to 50°F in the growing season. This altitude and the region's slate soils impart a unique freshness and minerality to the Garnacha's red fruit profile.

A step up, the 2018 Brega is pure and elegant, with impressive black raspberry, violet, candied cherry, and sandalwood-like aromas and flavors. It's another medium-bodied, elegant, balanced Garnacha that has ripe tannins and a character-filled, satisfying style to drink over the coming 4-6 years.
