This dirt cheap 100% Garnacha is usually an excellent and reliable value, but the 2009 was not quite as good as in previous vintages.Very dark ruby with a slight violet tinge. Angular nose of dried wicker and dusty black cherry. Chalky, slightly bitter dry cherry syrup flavors, leaving a flat-ish bitter note coating the mouth. Not bad, but I'd skip this vintage wait until the 2010s appear. C+. About $7 at Spec's.
