2013 Herencia Altes Garnatxa Negra Terra Alta...

108.206.133.198

Very nice 100% Grenache that sees no wood.

Tried the 2012 (now sold out) over the past holidays and recently sampled a few bottles of the 2013.

$10 for a super BBQ/cocktail/daily drinker over the summer.

Best when decanted a few times.

There are online pro reviews if you Google it.

I also picked up a few Opolo 2012 Mountain Zin's that's much better than the pro reviews depict, IMO, but they are for gifts (drank it last T-Day/X-Mas).

    - Red to differentiate it from Grenache Rose, which was also popular in the 60's. - DeKay 08:09:55 05/22/15 (0)
