Vinos Sin Ley, G-5 Garnacha, Puerta Bonita 2005 (Vinos de Madrid)

Deep red.

Reticent nose of raspberry/cherry liqueur and a loam/soil character.

Sweet textural impression, with raspberry/cherry front and center allied with a minerally structure that reminds me of stuff from Templeton Gap/Westside Paso Robles. No real complexity here, but it's very tasty, with very good length of flavor.

Synthetic cork (2-3 year death sentence).

$15
