El Escocés Volante El Puño Tinto is a serious and elegant red wine from Calatayud in Aragón, Spain , crafted from 100% Garnacha grown on 70 to 100 year old bush vines at 1,000 to 1,100 metres altitude near the villages of Acered and Alarba. Vegan, sustainable, and made by Master of Wine Norrel Robertson, it is one of the most compelling expressions of high-altitude old-vine Garnacha available anywhere.
Why You'll Love It
El Escocés Volante, meaning 'The Flying Scotsman', is the project of Norrel Robertson MW and his family in Aragón. Robertson's wine journey led him to the extreme high-altitude vineyards of Calatayud, where ancient bush vines dry-grown in slate and quartzite soils at over 1,000 metres produce fruit of extraordinary concentration and character. Found amongst mountain herbs, almond and olive trees, these old vines yield less than 1.5kg of fruit per vine, a testament to the rigour and commitment behind every bottle. The result is a wine of real depth, complexity, and a sense of place that is impossible to replicate.
Vineyard & Production
Garnacha vines aged 70 to 100 years are cultivated at 1,000 to 1,100 metres altitude in slate and quartzite soils, dry-grown with annual rainfall of just 200 to 300mm. All fruit is rigorously selected, with these old vines yielding less than 1.5kg per vine. After picking, grapes are held for a minimum of 48 hours in a cool room before bunch selection, then crushed into tanks and cold soaked at 8 degrees for up to 10 days. Temperature is then allowed to rise to bring on wild fermentation, with tanks plunged for gentle extraction and some extended maceration to add weight and complexity. 40% of the wine is aged in old, used French oak barrels of 500 to 650 litres with low to medium toast, before blending with some lees stirring and bottling with light filtration and no fining.
Tasting Notes

Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
