Garnacha 2021

$35.00

Tasting Notes

The 2021 Garnacha is a vibrant expression of Mediterranean warmth and California sun. Aromas of wild strawberry, black pepper, and dried herbs lead into a medium-bodied palate layered with ripe red fruit, subtle spice, and a touch of earthiness. Soft tannins and balanced acidity make it both approachable and food-friendly, with just enough structure to age gracefully.

This is a versatile red — equally suited to summer grilling or cool fall evenings. A perfect companion to roasted vegetables, spiced poultry, and classic Thanksgiving dishes.
