About the Wine: This wine is made with grapes from vines that were planted in 1893, among the oldest Garnacha vines planted in the renowned high elevation district of San Martin de Valdeiglesias. San Martin produces among the most floral and mineral Garnachas in all of Spain.The mineral and graphite characters of this wine are remarkable due to the granite and sandy soil in this area. The grapes are 100% organically grown. The wine is aged for 6 months in 2-3 year old French oak barrels.
Tasting Notes: Bright ruby. Intense floral and spice notes accent aromas of fresh raspberry and cherry. Very sweet and silky, with ripe red berry and spicecake flavors lifted by a kick of white pepper. Finishes sweet, spicy and long, with intense raspberry confit and bitter cherry character and very good clarity. VSL Garnacha has beautiful fruit, acidity and balance that its easy-to-drink, juicy character will pair with a variety of red and white meats, and it will also pair well with burgers, burritos, empanadas, Panini sandwiches and other casual foods
