Shop review: “The wine
has a brick red color with a bouquet of red raspberries, spice and white
pepper. The palate is incredibly concentrated and rich. The modern styles of
Garnacha in Spain are continuously being perceived worldwide as wines of
extraordinarily good quality. This wine is fruity, juicy and shows a great depth,
ripe tannins, length but yet with wonderful elegance and lightness. Enjoy with
sausages, roasted meats, aged cheeses etc.” (Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg VA)
My review: This wine had a red-violet color, and a smell of
ripe green herbs or freshly-cut twigs.
The taste confirmed this twig taste, and the wine was slightly chalky or
bitter. However, the finish was smooth
and only slightly sour.
I drank this without
food.
