Description

Luis Marín · DO Cariñena

A Garnacha from DO Cariñena, in Zaragoza, from very stony soils of low fertility. It is the winery’s most informal range, made for easy, uncomplicated drinking. Three months in oak, just enough to round it out without masking the fruit. The wine is dry, with 3.5 g/l of residual sugar and total acidity of 5.2 g/l.
