Cariñena Old Vine Garnacha
Cariñena, Aragón, Spain
Pretty good. Immature and rather sweet. Jammy, but dry, with a lot of lingering dried fruit. Buy it cheap.

Elegant and fresh. Balanced. Fruit driven but nicely offset by spice, licorice and berries. I could drink this all day on a week day or mellow holiday.

Perfect for my mood right now. Not too heavy, lightly sweet. Fruit forward. Yum.

Young, but decent wine for the money. Fruit, cherry and berry. Good finish with soft tannins. A good partner for cheese.
