Alquez 2021 has been awarded the Gold Medal at the summer edition of the Berliner Wein Trophy, one of Germany’s most prestigious wine competitions. More than 14,000 wines were registered at the summer edition of this competition 2024, tasted by an international jury of 400 experts during eight days of tasting. The competition is held under the strict rules of the OIV and UIOE, and is conducted under notarial supervision.
Alquez 2021 is the latest vintage of a single-varietal Garnacha made from old vines at Sommos’ small estate in Murero (Zaragoza). Our winemaker, José Javier Echandi, notes, “It stands out as a red wine with character, great freshness, and elegance. It is dominated by fresh black fruit notes on the nose, while the palate is structured, although with great finesse” This recognition “validates our work in a region where the vineyard’s climate and age make the task challenging, but the result is undoubtedly worth it.”
