Urbezo Garnacha Cariñena
00110115
An easy drinking, representative Spanish fruity red wine to enjoy the emblematic Garnacha from Aragon. This Grenache boasts exceptional aromas of raspberry and ripe cherries obtained through cold maceration of the whole grapes prior to fermentation. These notes are complemented with balsamic hints and nicely rounded up with just a few months of oak ageing.

Malbec in style
This reminds me of an Argentine malbec in terms of body and weight, and would be a great suggestion for anyone who likes that style of wine. Cassis-like that also made me think of the Rhone.
