Breca Tovana Old Vine Garnacha


Breca Tovana
Old Vine Garnacha
Munebrega
Spain
2013
$8.95

Gnarled vines, grown without irrigation, are a mainstay of Spain’s winemaking tradition and produce small clusters of perfectly ripe Garnacha grapes. Aromas of blackberries, plums, and cherries fill the glass and develop into luscious flavors of black stone fruit. Long, supple tannins complete this extraordinary wine.

I got a lot of cherry flavors with this wine. It had a yummy berry flavor to it. It was a little heavy in tannins, but I think that works for this wine. I didn't get to have it with food, but it would make a good dinner wine. Maybe it would even be good with chocolate!
