Daniel Gomez Jimenez Landi, Cantos Del Diablo, 2016
🏰 The 2016 Daniel Gomez Jimenez Landi Cantos del Diablo is a 【subtle and elegant Garnacha with flowers, citrus, and crushed stone notes】. This single-vineyard red, from a challenging but ultimately successful 2016 Spanish vintage, offers notes of pomegranate, blood orange, and wild cherries, showing both ripeness and restraint. It's notably mineral with a chalky sensation, and a reductive personality suggests decanting is a good idea. Expect a limpid red color, almost like a dark rosé, with intense cherry, raspberry, and spicecake aromas, picking up smoky mineral and floral nuances. The palate is juicy and focused, offering nervy fruit, lavender pastille, and cinnamon flavors that deepen and stretch out. It's medium to light-bodied, tangy, and clean, with a lithe and juicy core of sweet strawberries and raspberries, supported by lacy, punchy tannins.
🍴 This refined Garnacha is an excellent match for lamb. Its delicate yet complex profile also makes it suitable for roasted poultry, lighter game dishes, or even mushroom-based vegetarian options. Consider it with Spanish tapas featuring cured meats or mild cheeses.
🥂 Perfect for a discerning palate seeking a nuanced and elegant red, this wine is drinking well now and through the next few years, with potential to evolve further. Serve slightly chilled (around 14-16°C) after decanting for at least 30 minutes to allow its subtle complexities to emerge.
BACKGROUND
Daniel Gómez Jiménez-Landi (Dani Landi) is a pioneering winemaker in the Sierra de Gredos region of Spain, known for redefining Garnacha (Grenache). He focuses on high-altitude, old-vine Garnacha grown on granitic soils. 'Cantos del Diablo' (Songs of the Devil) is a single-vineyard wine from a very steep, high-elevation site. It is a profound expression of Gredos Garnacha, offering ethereal elegance, floral aromatics, bright red fruit, and a distinct mineral tension, often compared to fine Burgundy.
