Gran Cerdo Tempranillo 2019
Rioja, Spain
Gran Cerdo Tempranillo 2019.
Made biodynamically by Gonzalo Gonzalo.
The name, meaning fat pig and the label are a nod to the bankers who refused to lend him money to complete the harvest.

About the Winemaker
The wine in the bottle and the image on the label of Gran Cerdo say a lot about Gonzalo Gonzalo, an extremely talented biodynamic winemaker who turned their back on traditional methods and has succeeded in creating a developing a burgeoning reputation despite several setbacks.
The wines that Gonzalo produces use no filtration or stabilisation and has established a growing following. And the label, featuring a fat pig (Gran Cerdo in Spanish) is another nod to the difficulties that occurred during their first vintage. Needing financial support to complete the harvest, Gonzalo turned to the bank. The application was declined on the basis that wine was not regarded as suitable security for the loan as it could not be seized if repayments were not made on time.
