La Nit de les Garnatxes
Sand, Garnatxa
100% Garnacha
Medium deep ruby color. Fresh forest fruit aromas on the nose. On the palate, this Garnacha overflows with ripe red fruit notes: Strawberries, red currant, cherries, raspberries; all this in a mellow soft medium body where the tannins are very well integrated.
This seductive and fruity Garnacha from Sand soils finds its perfect fit with soft cheese tables, mild curries, baked zuccinis and pasta. Although, we also suggest to give it a try with local Mediterranean plates such as your classic paella and goat cheese salads.

James Suckling tasting 2018:
- La Nit de les Garnatxes Sand/Panal 2016: 92p. This smells of the blackest forest berries with just a hint of anise. A dark, well structured grenache with dry, but rather fine tannins and a long, bright finish. Drink or hold.
