The purple-colored 2006 Gran Viu Garnacha del Terreno is sourced from 94-year-old Garnacha vines aged for 22 months in a mix of new and second use French oak. It exhibits a fragrant bouquet of cedar, spice box, lavender, mineral, and black cherry. Smooth-textured with underlying ripe tannin, it is a finesse-styled wine which should blossom nicely over the next 2-3 years and drink well through 2018. Vinedos y Bodegas Pablo offers several excellent red and white wine values that are noted in Issue 181. The Pablo family farms biodynamically using no herbicides or chemicals and all the wines are estate grown and bottled.Importer: Tom George, Frontier Wine Imports, Dover, NJ; tel. (973) 328-4500
