La Sonriente Garnacha 2023

Ruby hue with lovely red berry fruit and some spice...  

Palate--Vibrant structured first impression, with nice acidity balanced against the robust foundation of lively tart cranberry,  juicy red cherry/berries and fleeting finish. 

Pairing this with an interesting experiment of Chicken with a tomato based paprika sauce and sour cream over noodles. Garnacha (Grenache in other countries) is a fruity, middle to lighter body with easy to drink structure. Previously reviewed a $7 Trader Joe's pick and a value at that. Raise a glass!

BTW--the paring was perfect!
