Vega sindoa - El Chaparral | Navarra DO Garnacha
Red wine | Spain, NAVARRA | 2021
This ruby wine has a very nice structure, with intense aromas of blackberries and raspberry. The tannins add both texture and a hint of bitter chocolate. At a slightly lower serving temperature, this wine is surprisingly refreshing with a summer meal.

About Vega sindoa
In the 1960s a large part of the vineyards were destroyed as a result of the sharply falling price of grapes. Only a few Garnacha plots in El Chapparal, the highest point of the valley, remained.
Only years later, from 1997, wine was again made from these vines. Since then, these wines have been known by enthusiasts as one of the most refined and delicate garnacha wines.
