Light fresh garnacha, nice texture and a bit of oak creates a nice nose and palate.

Actually Pinyolet. Coffee, black raspberry, smoke. Easy on the palate - opens up slow and pretty. Definitely decant but doesn't need more than an hour, and drinks fine right away. A little vanilla from the oak. Enough tannic structure for steak tacos or even cumin rosemary grilled lamb. Excellent value garnacha and solid through many vintages. If you lived in a small village you'd hope your local winemaker was this good. You don't though, and you're still lucky as hell to get this for its modest price. Also fantastic with a good friend and a free evening in the garden.
