After trying a Priorat Rose this summer, I decided to go for this Spanish red. I realize this label looks exactly like the rose I had back in July. At thattime I wrote, "This DOC region in Spain is known for their bold wines where the vine roots thrive in slate and quartz soil." I immediately notice the spice which is awesome. This granache fits that bold image and could stand up to any food. We match it up with some sheppards pie and it works. Mrs. Vino finds it a bit bitter but agrees it is OK. Sunday, November 7, 2010
