2023 Domaine Dexaïe Alto Alberche
Alto Alberche 2023 is Domaine Dexaïe’s Garnacha from the Sierra de Gredos, within the Cebreros denomination in Spain. The wine reflects the mountain landscape of this region, where vineyards on granite soils bring a distinctive expression to Garnacha. Its name points to the upper Alberche area, placing the origin of the wine at the heart of the bottle.
The estate’s approach favours native-yeast fermentation and vessels chosen to preserve the character of the fruit. Red berry aromas, floral notes and gentle herbal spice form an elegant profile, supported by fresh acidity and fine tannins. It is a red wine with structure and detail, offering an engaging introduction to the style of mountain-grown Garnacha.
Our pairing suggestions include roast poultry, lamb, grilled vegetables and mushroom dishes. Serve slightly cool and allow the wine some air, tasting as it opens rather than rushing the first glass. Alto Alberche makes a rewarding addition to a tasting of Spanish reds, especially for exploring the aromatic and textural range of Garnacha.
