Wine Description

This 100% Garnacha wine from the Campo de Borja DO elegantly expresses the characteristics of this varietal. 

Located between the Sierra de Moncayo mountain range and the Ebro River valley, this historic region has produced wine since the late 12th century. The continental climate is mitigated by the “Cierzo” wind that cools the vineyards.
