2000 Las Gravas Jumilla

[dananne]

Yet another Halloween porch wine report.

Dark, almost opaque color. Earthy nose, with some crushed raspberry. Very mouthfilling wine, a lot of textures. Good tannic structure, solid raspberry and dark fruits. Even though I gave up tasting rocks at the age of 4, there was a "slate"-type taste in there. I usually think of those types of descriptors as being unhelpful, but there you have it.

It was brought to the house by a friend who shared it during the handing-out-candy thing, so I don't know how much was paid for it, but I believe I've seen it around the $12 price point somewhere locally. I'll look for it, myself, and pick up another bottle or two.
