Following on the last post in with the Grenache theme, this was the other wine I tried along with the Australian one. It was bound to be different, being Spanish and much younger, and it was.It was deep red in colour and much fresher. It was a bit grapey, which is what you can get with warm-climate Grenache, but not overwhelmingly so. It was rich and had acceptable structure, but still simple and arguably one-dimensional. Not a bad thing though - a good example of affordable, good wine, although I wonder if the full price of £6.99 isn't a little steep.
