Linea Kármán is a new project by Bodegas Gómez Cruzado established to produce Garnacha-based wines from the Najerilla subregion of Rioja Alta with grapes sourced from vineyards along the Cárdenas river. Gómez Cruzado is run by the leadership team of David González, Riojan winemaker and viticulture technician with over a decade of experience as consultant for significant projects in different regions around the world. David has been advising the company since 2008.

The Kármán Rioja Tinto is 88% old bush vine Garnacha and 12% Tempranillo and made in a young, fresh style. Bunches are destemmed, but not crushed, before fermentation takes place in stainless steel using native yeasts. After a short maceration period, the wine is aged for four months in tank before bottling. This Rioja sits in the glass a bright cherry red. Aromas of red bramble fruit with a light floral note flood the senses. The palate is filled with crunchy wild berry fruit tinged with an appealing hint of black pepper. This youthful wine is surprisingly well-structured with soft, supple tannins and a vibrant acidity, finishing long enough to entice that next sip. Pair with freshly sliced jamón and manchego cheese or empanadas stuffed with chicken or beef.
