Bodega: Torres
Country: Spain
Region: Catalunya Denominacio d'Origen
Grapes: 65% Garnacha, 35% Carinena
Description:
- Best suited for roasted and Mediterranean dishes.
- I hear it's best to let this wine "open" for an hour before drinking
- Sweet, flavourful, just the right amount of tannins and acidity
- Since I had visited this vineyard while living in Catalunya, I trust this name...
- A very good wine, not extravagant, but good for everyday Mediterranean cooking. Mixes well with roasted chicken, tomato based sauces, champiniones...
This wine would go well with this roasted lamb with a Spanish/Arabian eggplant, tomato and shallot recipe (I actually used the wine to cook as well):
Music Selection:
OT - David Bisbal & Elena Gadel "Mienteme"
And this was one of my favorite songs to learn Spanish to... I used to listen to it every night. I can still sing it in my sleep. About a love that drains you so much but you cannot leave it...
Personal Rating: 7/10 I am adding this to my staple everyday wine list. So far the only wine I buy with consistency is Jose Maria da Fonseca's Peringuita.
Did you meant Periquita ? :) You got me curious about "Vina Brava". I'm going to try to find it here.
