Winery review: The Garnache de Fuego, a 100% Grenache cuvee, was aged in
both stainless steel and neutral French oak. There are 10,000 cases
for the US. This amazing wine boasts a dark ruby/purple color along with a
sweet kiss of jammy black cherries intertwined with crushed rock notes that
give the wine and undeniable minerality. As it hits the palate, a
full-bodied, voluptuous teture takes hold and the flavor profile moves
towards blacker fruits intermixed with camphor and forest floor.
My review: This oaked Grenache wine was full of
black cherries and oaky, buttery aromas on the nose. On the palate, the wine
was dry and rich with tannins. The flavor profile consists of black-fruit and
raspberries.
Food: Did not have with food
