Eclectico Puesta en Cruz Sobre Lias 2020, El Hato y El Garabato, Arribes

The wine is bursting with fresh citrus acidity and aromatics. Richness and smoky complexity comes from the lees, and results in a wine of balance and one that’s great with food.

Moving away from previous careers, both José and Liliana have spent several years travelling the world together, learning their crafts. Inspired by culture and history, their goal was of returning to their homeland and continuing the winemaking traditions of their Grandparents.

José is the winemaker and viticulturist. To name only a couple, he has worked at Dominio del Bendito, in Toro, and Niepoort Vinhos, in the Douro.  They have both also lived and worked in the Barossa Valley, Australia, and California. Liliana is the other half of this energetic duo, with a Masters degree in wine business managment. Together, and with the help of their kids and close friends, they have embarked on their adventure.

Equipo HG’s Eclectico range is for their project wines. Still learning what’s possible, what’s best, and what they like most, they experiment a lot with what they’ve got.

Finding an old vineyard, new to them, of just Puesta en Cruz (Rabigato), winemaker, Jose, decided to keep this wine simple. Made in stainless steel and aged on lees for a short period.
