Pretty tart but good - would def have again

Yo this was better than the Barolo. Clean clean clean.

Very detailed geographic info on the bottle. 35% Temp and 65% Granacha blend. Aroma is strangely nutty and toasty. Crackers and jam. Faint smoke. Flavors are tart. Hint of savory, meaty, woodsy stuff in there. It’s got chewy, chewy tannins too. Finish is all jams and jellies. Membrillo perhaps. This is complex, grippy, high flavor Spanish red. More like Evodia Granacha than the Tempranillo I’m familiar with. More violets and dark chocolate over cherries and wild strawberries. Maybe could soften with a bit more age. The tannins are big at this point.

Pretty Nice flavor, but only if given 24 hours to breathe.

Did not like at all

Absolutely delicious with stout cheeses (aged Gruyere and aged Gouda) and seedy crackers. Couldn’t be more pleasing. Was smooth, complimentarily fragrant and balanced. Try it!

Pretty tart wine. A decent sweet red!

good garnacha for the price, enjoy!

Smells amazing! Delightfully fruity and a little tangy. 35% Tempranillo, 65% Garnacha. Notes of chocolate linger. Even better after it opens up a bit.
