Herencia Altes Garnacha Negra 2010 is a soft and elegant wine with aromas of red and black fruits such as cherries and blackberries and spicy chocolate.
What the critics say...
Robert Parker: 89 points(01/05/2011)
Herencia Altés old vines were once dispatched to the local cooperative but no longer. The unoaked 2010 Garnatxa Negra (100%) was given some lees contact to enhance the richness and texture. Smoke, spice box, incense, mineral, and pure black cherry aromas are striking. Mouth-filling and elegant with enough structure to keep the wine for several years, this superb value finishes with no hard edges.
