The wine
What does this wine taste like?
Viña Zorzal Garnacha displays a bright, medium-intensity ruby red colour in the glass. It delights us with the clear and concentrated aromas of wild fruit, spices and dust it obtains purely from the qualities the grapes and vineyard deliver as the wine is not fermented or aged in wood. Dry and fresh in the mouth, with smooth tannins and a medium body, it is a mineral wine with a lingering finish. It maintains the primary freshness and acidity of its grapes thanks to the use of whole bunches of grapes with their stems during the vinification, especially in dry years. Although it is the basic starter red wine in the winery's collection, its unquestionable quality offers an amazing value for money. A splendidly juicy wine packed with flavour which seems to get better and better with every vintage. Fortunately, about 137,000 bottles are made every year!

The winery
Viña Zorzal
Back in 1989 Antonio Sanz finally fulfilled his dream of creating his own wines in Navarre after a long career working in the world of wine production. Years later, in 2007, his sons continued his dream by setting up the Viña Zorzal winery based on their father's philosophy of taking the utmost care of vines in order to make excellent wines.
