Alaya Tierra Old Viines 2014
Almansa, Castilla-La Mancha, SpainCalifornia meets Spain in this super rich garnacha tintorera red made with old vine fruit grown at 1000 meters above sea level over limestone/sandy soils. Expect a big, super ripe, raisiny-flavoured red with some spicy oak to add to its weight and power. The 2014 clocks in at 16 percent alcohol which becomes the focus of the long, warm aftertaste. As big as it is, it will have an appeal to a certain crowd who love ginormous reds. Personally, an earlier pick might be in order here to better express the terroir.Tasted: 27 September 2017Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $40.99 | 750ml | private wine shops |
