Jeg har aldri helt blitt fortrolig med klassisk spansk vin, har øvet meg men ikke fått det helt til. Så kom Dani Landi m.flere, og jeg er solgt!
Las Uvas de la Ira fra Sierra de Gredos 2020 er 100% garnacha, en av mine favorittdruer når den er behandlet på rett måte og dyrket i høytliggende vinmarker (her fra 700-1000 moh) Denne er lys rød, transparent på farge, ren og klar.
Litt vanskelig å få tak på på duft, men vi finner vill-bringebær og jordbær samt krydder. Ulike glass ble testet, Zalto Bourgogne, Zalto Bordeaux og Riedel sitt Syrah - Bordeaux vant.
Munnfølelsen et medium med et vell av frukt. Myk og innsmigrende men med fin og lett struktur og en lang, flott lengde. Lett tørrende tanniner og bra med syre. 15 % er høyt men fin-fint balansert, og det er ikke tegn til alkoholstikk i vinen, den fremstår som lett og fin. D-e-t-t-e er vin for mor!

Lovely Spanish wine that's got some oomph, but is not overpowering. We paired with a cheese and meat board and it was a bit heavy for that but not by much.
Dark red cherries, plums and a medium-full mouthfeel. Enjoyed this quite a bit.

Perfect blood. Nose is deep and mineral, lots of blood and viscera; turned soil; above that is kirsch and creosote, and higher yet is a wispy, constantly vanishing but haunting rose floral note. Gorgeous, but there is certainly a touch of heat; oy, Garnacha. Round and moderately dense on the palate; celery and celery seed, cherry meat and pit. Quite good balance on the finish with a defining edge of bitterness; less heat than on the nose, but plenty of ripe, ripe liqueur character and overall a very richly textured wine. Delicious wine, but it demands duck or fatty lamb; it's not a daily house wine. (Listed as 14.5% abv, but I'd guess it's more like 15%.)

Light and airy texture especially for a Grenache based wine. I wouldn't mention this wine in the same breath as Rayas but the texture was ever so slightly reminiscent. The flavors are gravelly with hints of rhubarb and berries. This was super interesting and an enjoyable change of pace.

Very impressed by this Spanish Grenache. Light, lithe yet persistent.
