Bodegas Ignacio Marin
Marin Old Vine Garnacha
Cariñena, Aragón, Spain
Hmmm, ‘Old Vines’ it’s not just for CA Zin now...
Dark red with a crimson robe in the glass. Smells good; like oak woodlands meets cherries. Tastes good; like tart juice from red fruit and bitters made of orange peels and barks. It’s a pretty smooth operator, but it’s also balanced and as dry as linens on the line in the desert. It’s not as funky or strange as some of my favorite Granacha’s, but this is just nice tasty red wine at a nice price point, old vines or not.
Had it again. Still an excellent Granacha for a good price.
