The soil is chalky & loamy & the vineyard’s sun exposure is both North & South. The altitude is 90m to 120m. The grapes were handpicked during the first & second week of April & they had skin contact for 1 day. Fermentation was at 14 Deg C for 3 weeks & the wine was bottled in October. This wine is a mid straw colour & is clear, bright, vibrant with a youthful hue. On the nose it shows intense pineapple characters with a delicate touch of freshly mown grass, underneath riper fruits, white peach & floral notes. Fresh acidity persists & gives great length. Finishes with a flinty mineral touch. Enjoy now with seafood, salads & goat cheese ...

For the Syrah Lovers, this is probably a welcome & unexpected version of a Chilean Syrah. As Jancis Robinson mentioned, I would hate to get this wine in a blind tasting, as I would put more towards Northern Rhone. There are very few Syrahs that dare to go so far in their acidity & go towards the herbal heights of the variety. This is the perfect reflection of the terroir of Lo Abarca. The nose is floral & shows red fruits & spices such as fresh white & black pepper. On the palate, it is delicate, with elegance & a firm acidity, full of red fruits. A must try Syrah from Chile! ...

Casa Marin - Miramar Vineyard Syrah 2009 6x 75cl Bottles

The soil is volcanic and granitic with sun exposure, NW and NE. Altitude us 150m-250m. The grapes were handpicked during the first two weeks of May, the wine underwent 100% barrel fermentation, 80% in new French oak for 18 months and is unfiltered. A deep black cherry colour with complex aromas reminiscent of ripe red berries, spices as anise, white pepper and black licorice in harmony with mocha and toasty aromas. As fateful as the aroma is, there is also a balance and freshness, an energy that allows the wine to be very playful and precocious, accented by the spice of habaneras aroma. The mouth presents a great front-to-back seamlessness, with fine continuity and length. What gives this wine its length is the vibrant acid and balance tannins. Pleasing with an agreeable finish.
Enjoy with seafood, salads and goat cheese.
