Vin Chicago's price is not only the lowest in the United States, it is actually the lowest in the entire world right now! This is a lithe, lively and energetic style of Garnacha - with plump red and blue fruitted palate entry with cool cleansing wintergreen acidity. Lovely ultra-fine tannin plays over a long layered finish. The mouthfeel is superb and for connoisseurs! Reminiscent of a hypothetical Burgundy/Rhone/Bierzo blend.

Wine Advocate
(1/31/2019) "The 2015 Pasos de San Martin is their village wine from 11 hectares of old vines they purchased in the village of San Martin de Unx. The wine fermented in open-top stainless steel vats and matured in used 500-liter barriques until it completed malolactic fermentation. It has some creamy notes and sweet fruit, with berry notes and some spices. It has a soft palate with fine-grained tannins and good freshness and is quite approachable and easy to drink. 12,000 bottles were filled in September 2017."

(8/2/2018) "Remarkably floral and crisp for this grape, offering so much vitality and delicacy for a red with over 14 per cent alcohol. That makes it an incredibly food-friendly wine that you can also drink solo. Serious aging potential, too."
