Espelt Quinze Roures 2006

Empordà, Ampurdain-Costa Brava, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), Spain Espelt Quinze Roures 2006 a blend of garnacha gris and garnacha blanca. Quinze Roures is more of an old-style, Euro white with its medium yellow hue and aromas of grassy, figgy fruit. The entry is ripe but with fine acidity and there is more of an oily grassy, fruity fig flavours with a dash of cream and vanilla. It's pretty slick - almost the anti-chardonnay.Tasted: 24 February 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
