Chilli and Apple Crisp

Posted on November 9, 2020 by Roger Harmston Posted in Terroir Leave a comment

Most righteous Chilli with an apple crisp for dessert.


Also thinking it would also be great with kale/feta/turkey kefta.


The Wine is from the Almansa Region in  LaMancha.  It’s Not the Impossible Dream.


We really enjoyed how well balanced it is with a nice long finish. It would be really nice to just sit and sip with friends.


A blend of 25% Tempranillo, 25% Monastrell and 25% Garnacha Tintorea and 25% Syrah. The Tempranillo grapes are harvested in the second week of September, Garnacha Tintorera and Syrah grapes at the end of September and Monastrell in the third week of October. 


Cold Winters (-6 C), hot summers (38 C). 


65-90-year-old dry-farmed pre-Phylloxera Monastrell, Garnacha Tintorera and Tempranillo bush vines from their oldest vineyard plots and trellised Syrah vines.

Oorganic farming methods, nutrient-poor and limestone-rich soil, scarce rainfall.
