@Delect Able This is the Garnacha - not offered in your Database. Quite a dark Ruby - tastes lighter than the colour would indicate. Earthy stalky raspberry and herbal aromas carrying on to a light to medium weight palate. Professional reviews mention fennel and lipstick. I couldn’t get either but I loved the wine. Only 1150 bottles produced. From a 100 year old hilltop vineyard at over 600 metres. A great food wine! Tried another bottle 49 weeks later on 10th February 2022 with similar notes as above.
