Tasting - Figaro

Name: Figaro
Variety: Tinto Garnacha
Region: Calatayud
Country: Spain
Year: 2016
Price: $8.95
Winery review: "The 100% Garnacha 2016 Figaro Tinto Calatayud is a smoking value and is another red brought in by Kysela that knocks it out of the park on the value scale. Bright berry fruits, dried herbs, earth, and a touch of spice all flow to a medium-bodied, rounded, fleshy red that has loads of upfront charm and accessibility. It’s not going to make old bones, but as a house red to enjoy over the coming couple of years, it’s hard to beat."
My review: Lets just jump in. It smelled deep but I couldn't get anything else out of it. The taste was sour, earthy, and mouth puckering. Not much else, wouldn't grab again for myself.


I did not have this with food.
