Legado del Moncayo, Campo de Borja (Aragon, Spain) Garnacha 2016

May 2, 2018

By Michael Franz

 If you don’t know much Spanish — or much about Spanish wines — Garnacha is the same variety as Grenache in French; Montaña translates to English as “mountain,” and these 40 year-old vines are all situated above 2,000 feet.  This terrific wine displays a fresh fruit core of red berries with spicy, smoky accents and a hint of juiciness to balance its tannic grip.
