Candea Tinto, Quinta da Muradella - 2020

Item # 50577 750 mL

From the more continental and mountainous Monterrei, close to the Portuguese border, this is not the green and verdant Galicia you may know. This fresh, medium-bodied blend of Mencía, Arauxa, Garnacha Tintorera, and Mouraton is fermented in tank, with 1/3 whole clusters. Dark berries, flowers, and herb aromas will pair well with chorizo and rapini.

Grenache

The Grenache grape (a.k.a. Grenache Noir) produces relatively pale, fruity red wines that often stop just short of sweetness. Grenache is familiar to most wine drinkers as an ingredient in the blends of the Rhône and Languedoc-Roussillon, where it can add charm to varieties that are a little rougher around the edges. The distinguished Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Gigondas appellations are both characterized by significant percentages of Grenache, while in Tavel and Lirac the grape is used to make...

A.k.a. Cencibel. Just about synonymous with Spanish wine, the red Tempranillo grape has now fully won over the hearts and minds of critics and amateur oenophiles all over the world.

Tempranillo is often used in blends with Bordeaux grapes such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and has lately been grown with considerable success outside of Spain, in...
