16 Little Black Pigs Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Navarra is full of delicious surprises, producing styles from traditional and oaky reds to the most modern and brightly fruity. Flor de San Martin is certainly in the latter camp, a juicy, Gold medal-winning red made from grapes grown in high altitude vineyards in the foothills of the Pyrenees. Little rain and these dizzy heights mean lovely intensity of raspberry fresh fruit and lifted herbal aromas – flavours that are unique to the region. This red is from winemaker Gonzalo Zelayeta, who works his magic at the modern San Martín de Unx winery, founded back in 1914. From hand picked (impossible that high with machines) grapes and fermented in stainless steel, this is tasty on its own and versatile with everyday suppers – pork casserole, roast chicken or spicy chickpeas.
