Niel Santofimia 2013 Red (Almansa)

Country: Spain / Central Spain
Variety: Red Blend
Winery: Niel Santofimia /

Charred, blackened aromas of mint, licorice and burnt tire overshadow the wine’s black-fruit components. This feels thick and dense, with chewy weight. Medicinal, herbal flavors of black fruits are peppery and a bit green, while mint and cough drop notes control the finish of this 85% Garnacha Tintorera and 15% Monastrell blend.
