The bottled 2023 Viñas de Gaín Tinto, from a diversity of plots in Laguardia and Elvillar, fermented in open-top stainless steel and oak vats and matured in 500- and 600-liter barrels and the second winter in foudre and stainless steel. The second half of August changed the aromatics to riper fruit, but the palate shows more fluidity and more tension; it's riper and fresher, with abundant, fine-grained tannins. The wine comes in at 14.5% alcohol. 38,522 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2025.

Blending Tempranillo with 5% Viura from Laguardia and El Villar, the 2023 Viñas de Gain opens with black fruit—plum and blackberry—lifted by a hint of bitter orange and marmalade. On the palate, it is broad yet fresh, combining juicy flow with fine, reactive tannins and notable energy. Overall, the 2023 Viñas de Gain delivers a compelling interplay of dark expression and agile structure, well achieved in the context of the vintage.

A touch of green wood spices to the rich but fresh cherries. Medium to full body, chewy and structured tannins and a tight, medium-long finish. This needs two more years to let the tannins settle. 95% tempranillo and 5% viura. From organically grown grapes. Drink from 2027.
