Description

Luis Marín · DO Cariñena

A Chardonnay from DO Cariñena, grown on very stony, poor soils. It spends three months in oak, a short spell that gives it volume without masking the fruit. The wine is dry, with 1.75 g/l of residual sugar and total acidity of 3.3 g/l, at 13% ABV.

The winery

Luis Marín

Family winery in Cariñena (Zaragoza), established as a bodega in 1903, with a winemaking tradition dating back to the early 19th century. The vineyards sit on slopes above 800 metres, on stony, low-fertility plots. The family keeps around a hundred hectares of old-vine Garnacha, worked for more than a century with low yields.
