Garnacha & Tempranillo
A delightful mix of fresh berries, liquorice and chocolate with a creamy, velvet finish.
Unlike classic Rioja, Ivan and Mario Santos love Garnacha more than Tempranillo. From their new winery, built in 2006, the brothers coax delicious flavours from old vine Garnacha for the Aldonia Vendimia label. This wine smells of sweet cranberries, black cherries and strawberries. It's even richer on the palate with a cocktail of fruit, chocolate, liquorice and vanilla.
You'll like this if you like... Big Riojas, warm hugs, spicy stews or Christmas.
Food pairing: Slow-cooked red meat stews, barbecued beef brisket or cheesy moussaka.
Cheese pairing: Manchego.
Music pairing: 'Wonderful', Gary Go.
Screen pairing: Million Dollar Baby, 2004.
