SW1018-22 Viña Zorzal Garnacha 2022
100% Garnacha from four different towns: La Corella, Cintruénigo, Fitero and Lerga. Each one provides different factors of quality and typicality. Viña Zorzal Garnacha 2022 is a unique wine with a different concept, a clear commitment to honesty, terroir and freshness and also respect for the environment using ecological production techniques. It is fermented in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts giving the wine pure aromas of red fruits and spices. In the mouth it is dry and fresh with soft tannins and medium body, red fruit, mineral flavor and long finish.
Pairing:
Serrano ham, cheeses, barbecue, and red meats.
"The regular red 2022 Garnacha was produced with grapes from the whole region—Corella, Cintruénigo, Fitero and now also Lerga—from their earliest harvest ever under very warm weather, and it fermented with 20% full clusters and was bottled early and unoaked. It has contained ripeness, 13.41% alcohol, berry fruit, hints of licorice and a touch of honey and beeswax. It is primary and has a medium body and a juicy mouthfeel with good grip and tension, more serious than the nose points at, with some chalkiness and without any heaviness or heat. Purity. This is fresher than anticipated after the torrid 2022 summer. 146,600 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2023." 92 Points. Luis Gutiérrez, The Wine Advocate . May 2023.
