Story: Garnacha is a grape native to Spain; this wine is from a region of Spain with a wine-making tradition that dates back to the times of the Roman Empire. This wine is estate grown and has been aged 6 months in French oak which allows it the Crianza designation. This lot is one of the best deals we have found and a personal favorite we are happy to share! __Taste: A complete wine, with aromas of forest fruit shrouded in chocolate, vanilla, milk, coffee, nuts and wood spice. The wine has a broad palate of earthy blue fruits and integrated oak; well put together, ripe and nicely open with a lingering spicy finish.
