Notas de Wine Advocate sobre la añada 2024

The 2024 La Xara is another different red. It's made from pure Garnacha, a variety able to adapt to the three consecutive warm and dry summers and keep the fresh and floral character. It fermented with full clusters in 4,500-liter oak vats and matured in an 11,000-liter vat and 600-liter barrels for seven months. They managed to make a serious wine, with some austerity but without any green notes. It has contained ripeness and good freshness and balance, with 13.5% alcohol, a pH of 3.65 and 5.5 grams of acidity. It started a little closed and took time to open up in the glass. It has more complexity and depth than in previous years, a more serious Garnacha. In 2026, the new Garnacha plantings will come into production. 12,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in early March 2025.

Notas de James Suckling

This is so tangy, peppery and bright, with grilled grapefruit, white pepper and touches of botanicals, ginseng, tile and minerals. The palate is full of energy even without the support of high acidity. Instead, this is supple and really firm. Amazing value for the money, with superb drinkability. You could really down this easily, but that doesn’t mean it’s not serious. Enjoy now.
