Bodegas Pagos del Moncayo Penelope Sanchez

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：1914

The value-priced 2010 Penelope Sanchez Garnacha (85%) – Syrah (15%) is a tank fermented and aged cuvee that delivers a tasty mouthful of savory black cherry fruit in an easygoing, forward style. Drink it over the next 3-4 years. Although it was only founded eight years ago, Pagos del Moncayo works exclusively with fruit over 80 years of age. Having just made my first trip to Campo de Borja in January, 2011, I can now see what makes that possible. It is a place that seemingly dropped off the planet nearly a century ago (after the vines were planted) and has seemingly only just been rediscovered in the past 10 years. Here old-vine Garnacha is King with bush vines that look like small trees planted on stony soil similar to, dare I say it, parts of Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Importer: Axial Wines USA; www.axialvinos.com
