Ludovicus Terra Alta Garnacha
Dang, this one is over oxidized, and smells like an aged tawny, not a Grenache. Off you go!
This is a good winery, just an off bottle.

Time to turn on the heaters, whatever you may have..
This is a great wine, and has never wavered from being one that everyone will enjoy, without that cloying and chemical that usually comes with ye olde crowd pleaser.
This is a well made wine, with a nose of animal fat,
This is a medium bodied, pleasant drinker. Calm and precise. Juicy mouth filling fruit, bright, and at the same time lends itself to a darker side of fruit. Light, yet on target, tannins. Low acidity, high Alcohol, yet no heat.
Stay warm.

More restrained than expected. Nice aromatics; cinnamon, vanilla, and cherry. Not too hot. Not too fruity.

Sep 29th, 2021This went down unbelievably smooth. Hint of vanilla and spice and lots of other things that are nice. This tastes a lot more expensive than it is.

Jan 27th, 2019Good for the price. Mellow/doesn't need to breathe, but well-rounded Spanish taste.
