2011. Having last night’s leftover meatballs with penne tonight, so I went back to the 2011 Garnacha shelf in the cellar (now empty) because it paired so well. This wine is richer in body and flavors with smoother tannins than last night’s. We loved it.

Dark ruby in color with a light red rim.
Nice fruity nose with black currants, blackberries, blueberries, plums, wood, licorice, cloves, herbs, spices, dark chocolates, coffee, bitter herbs, caramel, peppercorn, leather, metals, vegetables and earth.
Medium plus in body and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, sweet cherries, oak, vanilla, licorice, cloves, herbs, spices, dark chocolates, tobacco, coffee, caramel, peppercorn, leather and earth.
Long finish with round tannins and spices.
This is a nice surprise. A great Garnacha from Navarra, Spain. Interesting, with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel. Well balanced and enjoyable by itself or with food, like BBQ Meats.
This is very yummy.
These 100% Garnacha grapes are from 60 year old vines. Aged for 9 months in French oak barrels.
14.5% alcohol by volume.

Revisiting this one. Nice smooth leathery notes on the nose, blackcurrants and peppery on the palate. Medium-full body, med tannins that are a bit rough, med+ acidity, med-high alcohol.
