Description (by producer & GT in English only) :
No Stone Unturned builds on the success of our Catalan Eagle red and white pair from the same bodega.

The wine comes from the very best plots of our friend Pepe Fuster’s stone covered 26 hectare, organically certified vineyard in Terra Alta in Catalonia, north-eastern Spain. The Garnacha vines are nearly 50 years old and this age gives the wine great concentration and complexity of dark, spicy, blackberry fruit which has been seasoned and enhanced by 10 months in the finest new Dargaud & Jaegle oak barrels from France.

No Stone Unturned is a big, serious wine which is ripe and juicy enough to be enjoyed now but will also last a good 8-10 years in bottle.

I drunk this wine in July 2020.
Color 2/2: Dark ruby with a blackish core.
Nose: 8.8/10: Intense spicey (thyme) black fruit (plum, blackberry) and ceder
Palate: 8.8/10: Meaty red fruit (blackberry) with perfect wood/fruit balance
Finish: 8.8/10: Nice and long. Previous years were a bit more complex. Polished tannins.
Aging: Easily 3 to 5 years
Overall: 8.8/10 No Stone Unturned is a wine I follow for quite some years now and it always performs well, ages well, and tastes delicious, even the day after opening!
Highly recommended.
