Vintage Cellar Tasting Notes:
Gnarled vines, grown without irrigation, are a mainstay of Spain’s winemaking tradition and produce small clusters of perfectly ripe Garnacha grapes. Aromas of blackberries, plums, and cherries fill the glass and develop into luscious flavors of black stone fruit. Long, supple tannins complete this extraordinary wine.
Personal Tasting Notes:
This wine had very strong tannins which actually made my lips purse with how dry the wine tasted. I tasted the flavors of leather and bitter tobacco, as well as black currants and cherries. The aromas in the bouquet of the wine included strong cherry like cough syrup, chocolate and tobacco. Also the wine began smooth but immediately became dry and bitter. I disliked this wine very much.
This wine was tasted without food
