Decent Spanish red. Can buy locally for $5.99 and makes a great sangria base.

Loving this grape. This is a lighter Garnacha than some, which would make it perfect for bringing to a dinner party: Something unique that people might not have tried, without being so bold as to turn people off. Decanted it for a bit and it has a gorgeous deep-red colour. Would be interesting to try slightly chilled. Comes in at around $10.50, making it a great wine for such a price.
"Castillo de Monseran comes from the region of Carinena, in the heart of Aragon and the home of the garnacha grape. The vineyards are located in the highest areas, providing a cooler climate, ideal for the development of fruit flavours. The grapes were shortly macerated and then coolly fermented to make soft full-flavoured wine with intense colour and well-balanced res fruit finish."

🇪🇸 Full body Garnacha 🍇 fruity and mid-dry.. The vineyards are located in a higher area which provide a cooler climate for its fruity taste, and softer to the palate. I would serve this one with meat 🍖 . 13 % ABV 🍷
