Harley1199 Does not like this wine:
August 21, 2020 - Drowning a good Garnacha in wood is stupid but it sure has its loyal audience simply because of the names behind Orowines. On the nose, those toasted notes, coffee and liquorice stand out and fruity ones have little to do here. In the mouth it is monotonous with more roasted and dryness. Get this out of my sight ASAP .. let Kurtz judge.
Ahogar una buena garnacha en madera es una estupidez pero seguro que tiene su público fiel simplemente por los nombres que están detrás de Orowines. En nariz las notas tostadas, de café y regaliz sobresalen y las de la fruta poco tienen que hacer. En boca es monótono con más torrefactos y sequedad. Quitad esto de mi vista lo antes posible .. que juzge Kurtz.1 person found this helpful Comments (2) -

January 29, 2020 - For $13-$14 from Total Wine this is hard to beat. Peppery red and black fruits, herbs de Provence and a nice mineral finish. A drink me now wine.
Better than the bottle we had last September.

January 19, 2020 - Firm tannins. Balanced. Spicy notes, dark fruit. Vanilla. Paid 20 and I’ll buy over and over at that price.
