Tasting again, yet in a more relaxed environment. Confirm my previous rating. Elegant and sophisticated bouquet with notes of forest floor, strawberry stew, bloody meat, and herbs. Medium body, fresh, well-balanced with nice mineral touch. Incredible value for money. Those Fedellos are making beautiful things.

Incredible Garnacha made by my favourite duo from Spain. Elegant and sophisticated, even delicate despite 14.5 abv. Raw meat, underbrush, strawberry, and medicinal herbs. Well integrated tannin, fresh, with a long and flavourful aftertaste. Sweet tobacco, wild strawberry and spices.

Ca' di Mat

Curro Bareño and Jesús Olivares, already experienced with challenging regions through their Fedellos do Couto and Peixes projects (which they later merged into simply Fedellos), embraced the challenge of Gredos, finding old vineyards. In 2016, they founded a new winery called Ca' di Mat, meaning House of Fools in Piedmontese, reflecting the founders' adventurous spirit and willingness to take risks in exploring and reviving lesser-known wine regions. Their approach hasn't changed much, with a focus on minimal intervention and respect for the environment, but here they reveal a different terroir.
