<p style="text-align: justify;"> Another video review of a great old-vine Garnacha wine.  I can&#39;t help but come back to old-vine Grenache, especially from the areas around Madrid. This Gaznata Finca Mariano 2010 is actually from just across the border of Madrid, in Avila province.  It is from the <a href="http://www.donjuandelaguila.es" target="_blank" title="Bodega don Juan del Aguila in El Barraco Avila">cooperative</a> of El Barraco and is made by Daniel Ramos, an Aussie-Spanish wine-maker who consults at the cooperative, but also makes awesome Grenache under his own <a href="http://winesdanielramosvinos.blogspot.com" target="_blank" title="Finca Zebrero wines by Daniel Ramos">Finca Zebreros</a> label.  The wines of this area and the Madrid zone of San Martín are sometimes called Garnachas de Gredos and they are some of my favorite Spanish wines!  These are historic, beautiful vineyards, well worth a visit from Madrid, only 45 minutes away.  The area and the wines deserve to be much better known.  See the video for the full review and after the jump check out a couple of pictures of the beautiful vineyards.</p>
