Delicious Grenache. It started off so funky like rich soil with tons of acid but integrated over time into a smooth wine.

2013. It has a medium ruby color that's slightly cloudy with a young nose of cherries and tabacco while showing a tint of mustiness and slight volatile acidity. The mouth is dry and full of fruit recalling the cherries and adding some cranberries and dark chocolate. All and all it's a good wine but a bit dry and acidic for my taste. More marketing from Gredos. Good but not great. 15% alcohol with a medium color depth????

El Marciano - Garnacha grape. Label - Elon Musk on Mars. Funky nose: sulfur and sauerkraut; blackberries afterwards. Great experience - very unusual vine.

2013. Effervescent, but with a slight earthiness. Nice overall, but I was wishing for a bit more from it.
