The Vintage Cellar's Review: "This wine has a brick red color with a bouquet of red raspberries, spice and white pepper. The palate is incredibly concentrated and rich. The modern styles of Garnacha in Spain are continuously being perceived worldwide as wines of extraordinarily good quality. This wine is fruity, juicy and shows a great depth, ripe tannins, length but yet with wonderful elegance and lightness. Enjoy with sausages, roasted meats, aged cheeses etc."
My Review: This wine was spicy and rich, beginning on the nose. The strongest flavor was of pepper, supported by a tart cherry bitterness. It was extremely astringent from start to finish. The spicy kick was not only sensed by the taste buds but by the entire mouth.
This wine was tasted without food.
