  grenache, but not as we know it

  not sure why but not always a fan of new world grenache. this old world version is classy and great value too. lovely juicy berries, chocolate and grainy tannins. there is a nod to burgundy which i love. even better on day 2 and went superbly with barbecued food. really good and shows why spain can become a powerhouse again now its reinventing itself.

  Very good example of what can be done with Grenache/garnacha grape

  Very good food wine (makes a great partner with a good steak), keenly priced at the 2 bottle discount. Good raspberry flavours with subtle vaniila from the oak and a hint of violets.

  Very juicy, pure Grenache fruit (2010 Vintage)

  "Very juicy, pure Grenache fruit. Clean and modern and modish. Finishes simply but satisfyingly. (Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 25th May 2012)"

  a truly delectable freshness (2010 Vintage)

  "Despite being the main variety in famous wines such as Châteauneuf-du-Pape, grenache – or garnacha as it is known in Spain – has never had the cachet of more famous red grapes. Things have been changing recently, though, thanks to glorious reds such as this one, which has a truly delectable freshness beneath its exuberant raspberry and blackberry fruit. (David Williams, The Observer, 20th May 2012)"

  It's a stunner (2010 Vintage)

  "This youthful, strikingly packaged Garnacha comes from the Ribera del Quielles region of northern Spain. It's made from young vines - hence, in part, its juiciness - and it's a stunner, with lots of sweet bramble and raspberry fruit, hints of pepper and clove spice and a palate-cleansing finish. If you like your Garnacha fresh rather than baked, you'll love this wine. (Tim Atkin, TimAtkin.com, 5th May 2012)"
