From @bodegas_alto_moncayo - the 2014 Veraton Garnacha. This vintage earned #27 of the @wine_spectator Top 100 list from 2017. When released, this was an oak monster but age has settled things down. Medium bodied, with aromatics of blueberry, licorice, smoke and herbs this is in a gorgeous spot. On the palate, it has a ripeness when the blue berry fruit is complimented by brown sugar and vanilla. What makes this unique is the acidity this carries. At 15.5%, this is no shrinking violet in terms of alcohol but it remains remarkably balanced. This finishes long with velvet, sugar tinged tannin. #altomoncayo #veraton #campodeborja #garnacha #grenache (at Tuscany, Calgary) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDW_4j5JXPU/?igshid=1brbxw94m2a6n
