Very nice. A deep red, went well with Chuck roast. Good flavor, not too much tannin. Repeat depending on price

What a nice surprise! Old world style garnacha, with tight tannins, white pepper, assorted spice (cardoman notes), and no excessive fruitiness. Really great value, the way Spanish wines used to be before the imports all became new world style fruit bombs.

Deep and dark for a Granacha (aka Grenache). Smells lovely. Clean, fresh water meets berry patch. Lightest of barny element in the nose too. Flavor is fruit driven and oh so clean. Bitterness is prefect. Like cherry juice and fresh blackberries, but not as sweet. Plenty of smoke and woodsy-ness with the fruits & berries. Just lovely, affordable, high quality wine from España!

Red cherry and blueberry, but not sweet. Fairly strong tannins have aged pretty well for a lower priced red.

Excellent aroma, modest taste but for $11, hard to beat
