Winemaker Notes
Unusual for such a wine, the Garnacha also has a marked caramel undertone that is more nuanced than the average Rioja. The wine has a red color with purple flashes. It is very bright and lively, with a nose of strawberry, raspberry, cherry, and blackberry backed with notes of violet and lilac. Subtle notes of sweet spices and toast enhance and wrap the fruit. It is soft, silky, fresh and intense.
Pairs well with vegetables, beef, lasagna, pasta, appetizers.

The 2012 Campo Viejo Garnacha is as solid as a wine can get. This charming wine explodes with raspberries from the first whiff to the final sensation on the palate; not a complex wine but one that simply screams out its varietal heritage. I am thinking that a glass of this and a serving of homemade lasagna is the perfect match. A big yum here!
