"Alluring floral and blueberry aromas give way to rich flavors of blueberries, licorice and vanilla in this chewy, tannic red. It gives a star-burst of flavors that draws you back for another sip even as the tannins bludgeon your palate. An exciting, distinctive wine."

Spain has the largest area under vine of any country and a deep tradition of oak-aged reds. Tempranillo-based wines from Rioja and Ribera del Duero, alongside Priorat's Garnacha and Carinena, anchor its fine-wine reputation.
A rugged Catalan region whose steep llicorella slate slopes produce dense, mineral Garnacha and Carinena. Low yields and old vines give wines of great intensity and concentration.
One of only two wines with Spain's top DOQ status, yielding dense, mineral Garnacha and Carinena from steep slate slopes.
