Discovering a, for me, new wine region Sierras de malaga and Serrania de ronda This wine from Finca la melonera is made of Garnacha and Syrah. Young but ripe, red fruit and some spice. I like it!

Bright purple with lilac tones throughout and a thin rim. Interesting nose featuring Spanish spices, cherries, blackberries, and earth. I had no clue what to expect from this bottle from the Ronda region of Spain, but I can sum it up as an absolute crowd pleaser with actual complexity. Medium body with nice, round tannins and a bone dry mouthfeel. Amazingly dry. More red and black fruits on the palate with new leather, dusty earth, and some outstanding funk going on. This is probably one of the most fun wines I’ve had in a while.

30% cab 25 garnacha 25 Tempranillo 10 Syrah 10 Merlot Ronda Andalusian blend is just beautiful! 600-900 m in Alta really forces the great struggle & development of rich levels of flavor throughout the sip.

Nice dark fruit, easy drinking. Great for grilled foods or bolognese.
