About Gutierrez de la Vega Imagine

The Giró, also known as Garnacha Tintorera or Alicante Bouschet, is a typical variety from Valencia (eastern Spain). This variety with character and strength, traditionally used to give body to the simplest wines, grows specifically in the Jalón valley, northwest of Valencia, very close to the Mediterranean Sea.

Felipe and his wife moved there in 1970 to recover the old family vineyards and found the Gutiérrez de la Vega winery. From the family winery, dating back to the 19th century, they began to produce their wines, always under the philosophy of artisan production. Among them, Imagine stands out.

Imagine is a concentrated red wine made from vines over 80 years old located in Jalón-Masserof (a district of Jalón in the Marina Alta region of Alicante). On soils of white calcareous marl with a northeast orientation, the vineyard is planted 700 meters above sea level. The viticulture is looked after in a completely traditional way, guaranteeing both the harvest and the manual work. As it couldn’t be otherwise, the grapes for Imagine are selected by hand before being destemmed and placed in 300-liter barrels for fermentation. Between punching the cap and pumping over, it will remain there for 15 days until it is devatted and very lightly pressed.

Finally, Imagine is transferred to used French oak barrels, where it will age for 13 months. After a light filtration Imagine is bottled on the same property.

2020

Gutierrez de la Vega Imagine 2020 is a red wine that captivates with its understated maturity. As one brings it closer to the nose, a bouquet of wild blackberries and sloes unfurls, interwoven with the balsamic character of the Mediterranean scrubland and delicate hints of spices. On the palate, it unveils its succulent and enveloping nature, with nuances of cocoa that round out the tasting experience. This wine is an embodiment of harmony and sophistication, beckoning one to savor its vivacity and aromatic complexity.

2017

Imagine 2017 is a concentrated and complex red wine which needs time. This vintage was marked by a dry winter (with 25-50% less rainfall), average temperatures of 8.4ºC and frosts from 22nd to 25th January. The nose is very delicate, extremely floral, with pomegranate bouquet on a background of strawberries and red cherries. There’s also a certain woody taste, with a toasted, nutmeg and clove character. This profile persists on the palate, with notes of red and blue fruits (blackberry), as well as fruits picked on the banks of the river. Very fine tannins. Extreme delicacy.
