This old vine Garnacha wine was sourced from vineyards in Rioja set at 2300 feet. Aged for 11 months in used French oak, this wine shows nuanced aromas of bacon fat, smoke and creosote aromatics with black tea accents. Seductive and showing notable depth, this is driven by racy acidity which highlights flavors of black olive tapenade, black tea and black cherry and spices. This is a forward and simply delicious Garnacha that will best enjoyed over the next few years. (Best 2017-2023) - July, 2017 (OB)
