Country: Spain
Year: 2011

Shop Review: The 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: On the nose, I was able to detect some pepper from this red wine. ON the palate, I again tasted the pepper. I noticed some hints of fruit such as raspberries. Overall, I was thrown off a bit by the extremely pepper flavor and could not detect much else.
With or Without Food: Without food
