SW10211-24 Viña Zorzal Garnacha Blanca 2024 (12/750mL)

100% Garnacha Blanca. Los hermanos Sainz de Viña Zorzal rescató esta variedad casi desaparecida en Navarra para hacer esto vino maravilloso. La vendimia es temprana para evitar altas graduaciones alcohólicas. Hay una pequeña maceración con las pieles - durante diez horas - y después un prensado suave, fermentación del mosto flor en se hace con levaduras autóctonas en tanques de inoxidable.

Crianza de nueve meses en una mezcla de depósito de hormigón, foudres usados, y algunas barricas de roble francesa nuevas y huevo de hormigón.

Tiene un color verdoso claro y brillante con notas de limón, piña, y un toque de miel, y una mineralidad refrescante.

Maridaje:

Todo tipo de arroz, pasta, verduras, pescados y carnes suaves

They picked the grapes for the varietal white 2024 Garnacha Blanca quite early to produce the fresh profile they like, with 12.6% alcohol, a pH of 3.18 and 6.45 grams of acidity, thus avoiding the heavy and alcoholic wines Garnacha Blanca can produce when picked too late. They used grapes from the village of Fitero to ferment it in stainless with indigenous yeasts, and it matured mostly in concrete but also in a 2,000-liter Stockinger foudre, a 1,500-liter used foudre, five new 500-liter French oak barrels and two 700-liter concrete eggs. It's super pale and more reductive, flinty, still very young and serious. It has a clean, elegant and precise nose, with good freshness and less volume, sharper and precise, more vertical, with great finesse. It makes you salivate. They are moving toward more time in bottle and less in wood/concrete for their wines in general. They really like 2024 for whites. This wine really transcends the price. It was bottled in July 2025.
