About the Wine: I went to a wine shop and asked for something weird. They gave me a Garnacha from Navarra. Though bordering on Rioja, Navarra is nowhere near as popular. This Garnacha is, I am told, done in the style of its French cousin Grenache, a major varietal in Rhone blends.
About THIS Wine: Fruit and earth compete on the nose. Earth wins on the palate, creating a wine that is firm but not overbearing. There is no finish worth noting.
Drinking This Wine: This would pair well with grilled meat.
Overall Impression: This wine is tasty and approachable. For $12 it is good for the price.
