Tasting- Mas Donis Barrica




Name: Mas Donis Barrica
Region: Catalunya
Country: Spain
Year: 2008
Price: 17.95
Shop: Kroger
Review:  Mas Donis Barrica is a blend of 85% Garnacha and 15% Syrah. Aged for eight months in French and American Oak, it was bottled without filtration. It offers up an alluring bouquet of smoke, earth notes, clove, cinnamon, and black cherry. This leads to a wine with remarkable depth and concentration for its humble price.
Review: This wine was very good. It smelled like a smoky mix of dirt and spices. It also tastes like smoke or tobacco. There is some fruit maybe a cherry. Then not much else.
