Description

The Baramban from Bodegas Alto Moncayo is a sumptuous blend of 50% Garnacha and 50% Tempranillo grown at 550 metres above sea level. The complex nose shows abundant blackberry, currrant and violet aromas, leading to full yet silky palate of layered blackberry, plum and cherry fruit mingling with more floral notes, spice and subtle oak.  The long silky finish is beautifully balanced and hides the 15% abv with aplomb.  This beautiful wine is fermented in open top tanks and spends 7 months in a mixture of French and American oak.

Bodegas Alto Moncayo, founded in 2002 in the Campo de Borja DO, was established with the ambition of creating benchmark Garnacha wines from native clones and venerable old vines.

The estate is led by President and Founder José Miguel Sanmartín, alongside Winemaker and CEO Miguel Sanmartín, Principal Winemaker José Luis Chueca, and Consultant Winemaker Chris Ringland. Situated at elevation above the town of Borja, the winery enjoys sweeping views across the Ebro Valley to the Pyrenees, dominated by the dramatic Moncayo massif from which it takes its name. Deeply committed to environmental stewardship, Alto Moncayo follows a long-term, sustainability-driven philosophy embedded into everyday practice, aiming not only to meet but to exceed local and EU standards. Its dedication to expressive Garnacha has played a vital role in preserving some of the region’s oldest, low-yielding vines, many of which might otherwise have been uprooted. Through meticulous viticulture and respectful winemaking, Bodegas Alto Moncayo continues to champion the unique potential of high-altitude Garnacha, producing wines of power, balance, and unmistakable sense of place.
