La Granja Tempranillo - Garnacha

This interesting La Granja Tempranillo - Garnacha is just that - interesting. It hails from Cariñena, a city of the province of Zaragoza in Spain’s north. It is made with, as the name suggests, a blend of Tempranillo and Garnacha. The result is an intense wine with nice, smooth tannins that offers a sweet fruitiness.

The La Granja Tempranillo - Garnacha is quite a bold wine that shows the best of both Tempranillo and Garnacha. The tannins are smooth and the dryness and acidity of the wine is offset by a slight sweetness, thanks to the Garnacha used in this eclectic creation. To the eye: a beautiful, brooding and dark ruby red is observed with slight splashes of purple. On the nose: a delicious bouquet of juicy, plump red cherries coupled with notes of incense and oak. On the palate: very well-rounded wine that offers a mixture of sensations on the palate. It is medium-bodied and has a medium, complex finish.

This delicious wine pairs perfectly with soft, nutty cheeses, heavy salads, and grilled meats.
