2024 Envinate Albahra

Envínate Winery Envínate was founded by four winemaking friends – Laura Ramos, Alfonso Torrente, José Ángel Martínez, and Roberto Santana – with roots in Galicia and projects in the Levante and Canary Islands, among others. Their philosophy is terroir-driven: working with old vineyards, spontaneous fermentation, and minimal intervention to prioritize the origin and grape variety. The style is modern Spanish, emphasizing freshness, layering, and nuance.

A refined, fresh, and balanced blend with a distinct limestone influence. The 2024 vintage is blended from Garnacha Tintorera and Moravia Agria, sourced from calcareous soils in Albacete, Castilla-La Mancha. It has an alcohol content of 13.5%, a pH of 3.42, and a crisp acidity of 5.8 g/l. Fermentation took place primarily in concrete, with the Moravia Agria partially aging in barrels. The wine was bottled in June 2025. The 2024 vintage After a dry start to the season, summer rain showers provided sufficient relief for the grapes to fully ripen. Harvest began about ten days earlier than usual, and yields were lower. This resulted in concentrated yet balanced wines, with Mediterranean ripeness and remarkable freshness. The team considers 2024 a powerful yet harmonious vintage. Color, smell and taste In the glass, Albahra 2024 reveals a bright ruby red color. The nose opens expressively with tart cherry, rose petals, and floral notes, complemented by hints of menthol and lavender. On the palate, the wine combines intensity with refinement. The fruit is vibrant and juicy, supported by fresh acidity and a light grip in the structure. The chalky soil lends tension and precision, while the Mediterranean signature remains clearly present. The overall result is balanced, energetic, and clear in style. Professional reviews The 2024 Albahra received 94 points from The Wine Advocate and 92 points in a supplementary assessment within the report "El Bierzo & Galicia: The Sil River Illuminates a Different Side of Spanish Wine" (drink 2025–2035). The wine is praised for its harmony, freshness, expressive aromatics, and intelligent balance between intensity and structure.
