San Gregorio – Las 75 Vendimias – Red 2021
Calatayud DO – Aragón, Spain 🇪🇸

Overview
A tribute wine honoring Emilio González’s 75 harvests, sourced from old, high-altitude vineyards in Calatayud. This Garnacha-driven blend (70% Garnacha, 30% Tempranillo) captures the rugged character of the region, elevation, stony soils, and traditional viticulture, resulting in a wine that is both expressive and grounded, with warmth, balance, and authenticity.

Aromas & Flavors
Ripe black cherry, wild strawberry, and plum lead, followed by dried Mediterranean herbs, licorice, and gentle baking spice. Subtle earthy and mineral notes emerge with air, reflecting the old-vine origin and high-altitude terroir.

Mouthfeel
Medium-to-full bodied with rounded, supple tannins. Garnacha brings generosity and warmth, while Tempranillo adds structure and grip. Fresh acidity keeps the wine lively and balanced through a smooth, savory finish.

Food Pairings
Grilled lamb, herb-roasted chicken, mushroom dishes, lentil stews, aged Manchego, or rustic Spanish fare with olive oil, roasted peppers, and slow-cooked meats.

Verdict
A soulful, well-priced Spanish red that delivers true sense of place. Honest, expressive, and comforting, this is old-vine Garnacha done right, approachable now, yet structured enough to hold its own at the table.

Did You Know?
Calatayud is one of Spain’s highest-altitude DOs, with many vineyards planted between 700–1,000 meters, helping Garnacha retain freshness and balance even in warm vintages.

🍷 Personal Pick Highlight
This is real Spain in a glass, old vines, elevation, history, and soul. A wine I happily recommend when authenticity matters more than flash. — 28 minutes ago

At 9 years and with 6h decant this is singing. Expressive, juicy, fresh and quite mineral.
Black fruit, cloves, black pepper, dried orange peel + a warm rocky mineral presence. Highly enticing.
On the palate this is medium bodied, with bright, juicy acidity and a beautiful tannic frame. Quite pronounced but polished, juicy and slowly mellowing. Love the tension between the tannins and acidity. And the space in between. Very long finish with a mineral, rocky ending.
This is quite serious but so drinkable! Works beautifully with food (ribeye!) but also is highly enjoyable after. A bit of a meditation wine.
Delicious stuff! — 6 months ago

Had the 2023 in August of 2025. Spanish tapas night pairing. Big body with a phenolic character. Some raspberry, strawberry, lemon, cedar, rose and green apple on the nose. Some raspberry, cherry and strawberry up front. Dry character lingers but don’t perceive this as tannins. Was a really different kind of a pink wine for us. Would buy again. — 4 months ago

This is a wine that fits perfect on a hot summer day sitting outside enjoying the weather. Incredibly crisp and fresh, with the perfect amount of acidity. Pale in color, with great minerality. Very very good and would drink again — 6 months ago

After 15 years this is starting to shed its gloomy and cranky nature. Black fruit, volcanic minerality, tons of fiery and smoky nuances, refreshing acidity.
Very nice! — 9 months ago
