The 2013 Bajondillo is a blend of old-vine Garnacha and younger Syrah outside the boundaries of Gredos, aged for six months in oak barrels of different sizes. This is still very young and has some reductive notes when opened, so energetic decanting is a good idea. It has an earthy, slightly animal profile with notes of forest floor and hints of leather over the mixture of red berry fruit, but no noticeable oak. The palate is medium-bodied, with some grainy tannins and quite marked acidity. This would be better with food. 90,000 bottles produced.
