Garnacha Vieja

2008 Navarra Red Blend

The Gardacho Garnacha Vieja from Navarra is a captivating red blend that showcases the charm and character of the region’s old vines. With its rich ruby color, this wine invites you in with an enticing bouquet of dark fruits and subtle herbal nuances. On the palate, it offers a well-rounded mouthfeel, balancing a harmonious acidity that enhances its food-friendly nature. The fruit intensity is pronounced, with luscious notes of black cherry and ripe plum, complemented by gentle hints of spice. Well-integrated tannins add structure without overpowering the overall elegance of the wine. This vintage is remarkably dry, allowing the complex flavors to shine, making it a delightful choice for both casual sipping and more elaborate dining experiences.
