Hoyanko

Old-vine Garnacha from Spain's high-altitude heartland.

Hoyanko produces wine in Castilla y León, Spain's vast central plateau, where continental extremes and high altitude shape the character of the grapes. The winery's Viña Marisa Garnacha de Viñas Viejas draws from old-vine Garnacha, a variety that thrives in the region's demanding conditions. Garnacha, when sourced from mature vines, tends toward concentration and depth—qualities that emerge from the stress of age and the region's spare water and intense sun. Wine Advocate has rated this wine. The expression reflects both the terroir of Castilla y León and the particular potential of heritage Garnacha plantings.
