 Bodegas Zabrin 2006 Old Vine Garnacha de Fuego AG Staff Favorite - 90 Points!
For those of you who have had the opportunity to taste this incredible juice, this will come as no surprice. No joke! This wine is in a word FANTASTIC! Not only in price, but in overall quality. This beauty (from importer Jorge Ordonez and the folks at Juan Gil, makers of one of Spain's greatest wines; Clio, [RP97 in 2004] overall winner of the 2007 Hospice du Rhone tasting) is loaded with delicious fruit, freshness and just absolute decadence. This is another "has to be tasted to be believed" wine that you should not miss.
A remarkable value, the 2007 Garnacha de Fuego is fashioned from a 60- to 80-year-old hillside vineyard planted at a relatively high altitude above 3,000 feet. It is hard to believe a $7 wine could possess so much flavor. Sweet raspberry and cherry fruit intermixed with loamy soil and spice aromas soar from the glass of this medium-bodied, richly fruity red that has never seen a hint of wood. Consume it over the next 2-3 years.
