This Cannonau (also known as Garnacha or Grenache), displays a dark, haunting profile with slightly funky, in a nice way, accents. Dark fruit flavors are apparent and balance the savory elements in this chewy wine. This is a weighty, but not heavy, wine perfect for a hearty meal on a winter day or to serve with robust fare from the grill.
