ALTOVINUM Grenache 2007  
designation: Evodia
vineyard: N/A
region: Spain
review date: 2010-01-15

Evodia Garnacha

A wonderful wine that represented old vine Grenache extremely well; a standout that should be very popular. Subtle aromas of red fruit mingle with spicy smokiness uplifting joy in every swirl.

Big flavors continuing in the vein of spicy, leather, dust and swaths of red fruit makes every sip a treat. Finishing big, smooth and pleasurable, we paired this up with a rack of hickory smoked ribs and it was a match made in heaven. ~Marc Hinton
