Vinas del Vero Secastilla Garnacha 2017
Spanish garnacha (aka grenache) just gets better and better. The grape is (probably) native to Aragon but for years garnacha was thought of as a workhorse variety, good for blending and rosados. Now though, winemakers are taking it seriously and the results are stunning as with this red from Somontano, in Aragon funnily enough. This comes from nearly 100 year old vines so the grapes are immensely concentrated with just a little syrah added for spice. This will need some hearty food like shoulder of lamb.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Rich dark fruit on the nose with spices and espresso coffee. It's powerfully tannic on the palate, but opens up with time open to reveal blackcurrants and strawberries with a long spicy finish.
