SPECIAL SELECTION OLD VINE GARNACHA 2017 DOP Cariņena |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
MONASTERIO DE LAS VIŅAS |
This 100% Garnacha has a fairly intense purple colour and a bright, gently juicy, ripe plum-cherry-cassis nose with some mineral-tinged, cedary notes. Dry, medium-bodied, quite well structured, slightly spicy, intense, somewhat maturing, plum-cherry-blackberry fruit flavours with a lingering, fairly high acid, gently savoury finish. It spent 4 months in French oak and has 14.5% alcohol and 3 g/L residual sugar with lot number L23028D on the back label. A versatile, ready-to-drink. crowd-pleaser |

TASTING NOTE: Sourced from 40-year-old vines, this wine then spent four months in French oak. It's ripe but poised, with well-framed red and dark fruit, earth, savoury herbs, and a lifted minty/licorice note. This approachable, succulent wine is ready to drink now. Perfect for barbecue. |
