Garnacha de Fuego 2006

This one of our favourites. It’s hard to find. We found it at Brewery Creek Cold Beer and Wine Store, at 3045 Main St.

The Garnacha de Fuego has a rich, dark fruity aroma. It’s smooth and warm, like a kiss from a beautiful brunette. Kayla confirms. It’s definitely a brunette, not a blond.

It’s got a smooth, fruit flavor, with hints of chocolate, plums and cherries. The finish lingers, with a pleasant tang.

This would be a great wine for a romantic night in front of a fireplace. It might even go well with a redhead.
