Rojo Granrojo Garnacha 2023 (Spain)

Description

Floral, Plum, Raspberry

"My best-selling Spanish red for more than a decade and for good reason" Steven Bennet, Master of Wine

"Perfumed and instantly appealing with sweet plum, rich floral, clove and nutmeg aromas, it's succulent and fleshy in the mouth delivering silky flow backed by fine tannins, finishing lingering and delectable. At its best: now to 2028" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit

"Great colour and bouquet of ripe red berry fruits, plums and violets. As the wine touches the palate there’s an immediate firmness and youthful from the acidity then tannins, these give way quickly to reveal dark fruit flavours of blackberry then plum. There’s some clove and toasty wood moments, with a balanced even finish. Great food wine, and best enjoyed from 2024 through 2028" Cameron Douglas, Master Sommelier

A rich, juicy, full-bodied, opulently-fruity blockbuster with soft tannins for easy drinking and ‘glugability’.
