I don’t drink too many Spanish wines but I do like a good Cariñena. At first this had an indescribable odd taste but as it’s opening up it’s very nice. It has a high alcohol content but you’d never know. - The Wine Cellar, Boynton Beach FL

One of the smoothest Cariñenas I've had from Spain - thanks to Laithwaite Wines for introducing me to this one!

Nice sipping red wine. Like a good Cabernet Savignon. First Spanish wine we've enjoyed.

I’m new to Spanish wines but this one encourages me to try more. Had with cheeses and smoked meats.

Delicious GR #carinena 100% #garnacha. Deep bramble fruit aroma; cassis, cocoa, pronounced acidity and grippy but fine tannins that hang on for a really long finish.
