Same Matador, different colour. A flavourful wine, this Garnacha (aka Grenache) is a charismatic red with a dramatic mouthfeel. Notes of strawberries and cherries come charging in on a palate of spicy raspberry attack. There is a powerful spice note that warms the mouth and carries through to textured and deliciously long finish. Grab it by the horns!
Gary Walsh, The Wine Front:90++ A fresh young style. Raspberry, brown spices, florals and some modest earthy bass notes.
