Tasting - Breca Tovana

Name: Breca Tovana
Variety: Old Vine Garnacha
Region: Munebrega
Country: Spain
Year: 2013
Price: $8.95

Vintage Cellar Review: 
Gnarled vines, grown without irrigation, are a mainstay of Spain's winemaking tradition and produce small clusters of perfectly ripe Garnacha grapes. Aromas of blackberries, plums, and cherries fill the glass and develop into luscious flavors of black stone fruit. Long, supple tannins complete this extraordinary wine. 

My Review: 
Immediately, when first initially smelling the wine, I felt like I had walked into a bakery that had just put out some cherry danishes. There was also a slight spice on the nose. The taste of this wine starts of dry and then ends in a pleasant sweet note. It had notes of cherries and spice. 

I did not have any food while tasting this wine.
