Clos Saint Sébastien 2017 Empreintes Rouge: This wine hails from the town of Collioure in the Languedoc-Roussillon region in the south of France. Composed of 90% Grenache and 10% Carignan, it offers dried dark skin fruit flavors cloaked in notes of dust and earth. It is medium-bodied with fresh acidity, noticeable tannins, and a pleasant, mineral-tinged lingering finish. I recommend serving it with good friends and a hearty meal. #WiningHourChat #Grenache #Carignan #Roussillon #GarnachaDay #GarnachaGrenacheDay #wine #WiningHourChat #winelover https://www.instagram.com/p/B2p35WbHVr3/?igshid=uam323c7swic

Altovinum Evodia 2017 Garnacha: In ancient Greek language, Evodia means fragrance—and this deep ruby colored wine offers loads. Blackberry, kirsch and violet scents join dried raspberry and mineral on the palate. It is medium-bodied with good acid lift and powdery, dusty tannins. Rock solid satisfaction at $10! #WiningHourChat #GarnachaDay #GarnachaGrenacheDay #wine #SpanishWine #winelover https://www.instagram.com/p/B2nbIN3nJPa/?igshid=go23a6y6n18a

I had a chance to taste a number of wines last night for #WiningHourChat ahead of #GarnachaGrenacheDay on 9/20. The Clos Dalian 2018 Garnacha Blanca hails from #TerraAlta DO in the northeastern region of #Spain. This wine is medium-bodied, bright and fresh, with low-key aromas and flavors of orchard and citrus fruit with a mineral edge and balanced acidity. For $10, it is satisfying and will work well with most seafood and veggie dishes.
