Langa Tradicion Centenaria Garnacha 2011, Do Calatayud

Intense bouquet with lots of fruit aromas: blackberry, raspberry, plum, as well as dried/cooked fruit such as prune and strawberry jam. These are balanced by powerful smoke aromas, cedar, vanilla, and a bit of coffee and spice. Cherry and some black pepper seem to come out on the palate. Quite full bodied with lots of grippy tannins, but they are velvety and supple. Good length, finishing with blackberry, plum, chocolate, coffee, and a bit of spice. Great value.
