Community Tasting Notes 2

  April 22, 2017 - We brought this bottle back from the Bodegas Arrayán winery in Méntrida, Spain, near the city of Toledo. Made from the small region's signature grape, this wine is lighter in color and not nearly as deep purple than what one might expect from a Garnacha. The nose leaps out of the glass with a unique herbaciousness -- oregano, to be specific -- creamy strawberry, and a bit of cocoa powder. It's delightfully smooth in the mouth, with lovely strawberry and raspberry notes, a creamy texture, and nice spiciness. There are some definite Pinot Noir qualities at play here that really distinguish this from Garnachas grown elsewhere in Spain. This was a really lovely bottle that we'll certainly seek out again.

  Cerezas y bayas del bosque, perfumado, un toque polvoriento y vegetal que aun tiene que integrar.
  
  La boca es fina, sin una densidad que canse, un tanino vigoroso pero noble y un final algo cálido.
  
  Progresión a vigilar.
