Solita - Garnacha

Solita
Garnacha
Spain, 2006



I had never even heard of garnacha wine before; it is also referred to as "grenache" in French (garnacha being the Spanish). It is apparently typical of Rhone wines (which I have not yet tried).

This was a strong red wine with lots of flavor - a little dry, a little harsh but in an enjoyable way, if you're in the mood. It was fabulous with grilled meat and a salad with feta cheese. Gorgeous ruby color. Recommended, but probably best with food rather than alone.
