Viñas del Vero
La Miranda de Secastilla Somontano Garnacha
Somontano, Aragón, Spain
The dark wine gives some amazing aromas on its nose. Black cherry, plum and chocolate hit the strongest, while the leather and tobacco I expected to shine took a back seat. The palate is savory, with the dark fruit carrying a load of earth and minerals. Tannic structure is still bristling with youth, and the wine finishes with baking chocolate. Have it with any kind of meat, but keep it on the table for dessert, hopefully something chocolatey.

Big, spicy, rich and deep. Nice acid. Moderately good nose and finish. Alcohol shows through however, spoiling the total picture a bit.

Smells of spice but not spicy. Can taste a slight tinge on first sip. Opaque. Dry. Flat but not flavorful flat - flat on the tongue. Juicy but not jammy. Plum and cherry? Currants?
