This is another stunning value from the treasure trove of bargains, Calatayud. Made from 100% Grenache, the dark ruby/purple 2013 Garnacha offers sweet kirsch liqueur, licorice and loamy soil notes, as well as touches of pepper and spice. It is dense, round, juicy and hedonistic. Drink it over the next two or three years.

Albada’s purple-colored 2010 Garnacha Viejas spent 6 months in barrel. It displays rose petal and wild cherry aromas leading to a savory, ripe wine with a touch of complexity. Drink this very good value over the next 3-4 years. Importer: Axial Wines USA; www.axialvinos.com

Albada's 2008 Garnacha Viejas spent 8 months in oak. Purple in color, it delivers an attractive perfume of underbrush, spice box, and black cherry. On the palate it has good volume, a bit of structure, and excellent concentration in addition to a sense of elegance. This excellent value will drink well over the next 3 years.
