2012 Bodegas Breca Garnacha

2012 Bodegas Breca Garnacha $14, 14.5% abv 

This wine greets you with a deep almost inky red color. Breca is 100% Old Vine Garnacha from the Calatayud appellation  in Spain. The nose is earthy with cherries, strawberry and smoke or tar.

The flavor profile is big and bold exhibiting those same cherries on the palate. There is plenty of fruit that is balanced by earthiness and mild tannins. 

This is a drink now value wine, though it could be cellared for a few years with no problem. Purchased at Topline Wines in Glendale and also currently available at K&L Wines.
