"Spain keeps churning out delicious garnacha (known as grenache elsewhere) with effusive, spicy fruit flavors. This is yet another example, a fun wine to have with casual weeknight dinners."
"This is another stunning value from the treasure trove of bargains, Calatayud. Made from 100% Grenache, the dark ruby/purple 2013 Garnacha offers sweet kirsch liqueur, licorice and loamy soil notes, as well as touches of pepper and spice. It is dense, round, juicy and hedonistic. Drink it over the next two or three years."

"Violet color. Fruity, inviting aromas and flavors of vanilla toffee, chocolate cherry bon bons, strawberry jam on toast, and bacon with a satiny, tangy, fruity medium-to-full body and a compelling, medium-length dark roasted nuts, borscht, cacao nibs, and cedar finish. A rock solid garnacha with appealing fruit flavors."
