Viñas Viejas de Paniza Cariñena Garnacha
Lineup of seven reds before our tasting of Sonoma Coast Pinots. Really odd / cardboard? taste to this Spanish Grenache. Not for me.

Jul 19th, 2021Vintage 2012 / well aged #garnacha can be beautiful. Figs, nuts, cinnamon, soft at first sip, high acidity so good with food and prominent bitters.

Oct 6th, 2018You know what this wine smells and tastes like? A Dry Creek Zin. Seriously. Pure blackberry/cherry fruit, vanilla stick, and some stony minerals underneath. It was more Grenachey when it was younger, but I like where it is now. Is there a better wine under $10?

Medium acidity. Great QPR. Can stand up to a Porterhouse but just as at home with burgers! Which is what we had.

Mar 4th, 2016This Carinena is one of the best values of 2015. Intense nose of raspberry preserves and pungent minerals. Mouth filling ripe raspberry and black cherry, along with a brambly quality. Very good acids, and a bit of tannin in the tail end as the flavors turn minerally. Was $10.
