this is a powerful, rich, toasty garnacha, with grit, earth and spice galore on the bouquet. it feels tough, masculine and tannic, with a mix of beefy black-fruit flavors elevated by molasses and spice. firm and showing some burn on the finish, along with notes of black licorice and peppery spice. only 200 cases made. drink now–2016.
