The freshness of the altitude gives its wines hints of citrus and flowers that are not found in other wines in the area. If we add their traditional way of making wine in underground concrete tanks, here is the result: a light and fresh wine. 

The characterful and honest unoaked Garnacha red 2021 Sindicat La Figuera was produced in a very simple and traditional way—fermented with a short maceration in underground concrete vats, where the wine matured with abundant rackings. 2021 was a cool vintage, and the wine has 1% less alcohol than the 2020 I tasted next to it; this wine comes through as fresher and with better balance. It's more delicate, elegant within the rustic and straightforward style they look for, with very fine tannins and very clean and focused flavors. A great improvement. Production grew to some 60,000 bottles. It was bottled in August 2022 after maturing exclusively in concrete.
