This has remarkable purity of fruit. Lovely balance of fruit acid and tannins. Charming.

Interesting Garnacha/Syrah Blend from Catalonia. Intense aromas of red and black fruit with notes of minerals, stones and baking spices. Dried (intense) red and black berry flavors along with hints of toast and those baking spices. A bit of a green leafy quality which is quite pleasant. Creamy texture. Fine and velvety tannins and nice ruby color. Harmonious and well balanced. Excellent QPR.

Wardman wine club pick. Rich and meaty but not too fruity. Nice blend.
