WINE DESCRIPTION
Las Rocas Garnacha is a red wine produced by Bodegas San Alejandro in the Calatayud appellation of Spain. The vineyards are located at high altitudes, with rocky soils that provide excellent drainage and impart minerality to the wine. The grapes are hand-harvested and undergo a traditional winemaking process, with fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is full-bodied and rich, with flavors of dark fruit, spice, and a hint of smokiness. It is a great example of the quality and character that can be found in wines from the Calatayud region.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Las Rocas Garnacha is a luscious and vibrant Spanish red wine.On the nose, aromas of ripe cherries and plums mingle with a hint of smokiness. The palate is full-bodied and smooth, with flavors of blackberry and raspberry jam, along with subtle spice notes of pepper and clove. The finish is long and lingering, with a pleasant acidity that balances the fruit. Enjoy this delightful wine with grilled meats and roasted veggies.
