  Garagiste 19.99 magnum end of 2015. Last one. Again, CT drink by notes are conservative. This was well balanced and delicious. I enjoyed this one better than the previous 2 mags, which I opened 4 and 6 years ago, so I really like where it is now. Fine alone, nice fruit, acid and wood balance, but great with food. Love the way wine ages in mags. I got this b/c further back I had Ontanon reserva and crianza and liked the crianza better, so I picked this up, even though it was 2012 vs. 2010 crianza that I really liked. Enjoy.

  Dyp mørk rød.
  Modne mørke røde bær. Plomme med vanilje.
  Tørr, moden og mektig. Urter med pepper. Mørk men fin syre.
  Tørket frukt.
  Varer lenge.

  Well balanced with fruit and oak. The oak may be a little strong for some. A great value.
