2007 Can Blau

[wondersofwine]

Hey, I'll argue with Drew! I liked the 2007 Can Blau, Montsant better than he did--but on the third day after opening!
Mazuelo 40%, Syrah 40%, Garnacha 20%. 14% alcohol by volume. Nifty label!
Imported by Tryon Distributing Company, Charlotte, NC. Purchased at The Wine Merchant, Raleigh for $16.99 plus tax.
On the third day I found it fruity and smooth with raspberry notes and herbal hints. I liked the way it paired with rump roast. Some sediment towards the bottom of the bottle. I think the Grenache asserts itself in the berry-like nose and flavors. I have no clue what the Mazauelo is like on its own--perhaps it is raspberry-like also.

I'll give Drew that it's not very complex, but I would purchase again, unlike Drew.

Vouvray, if you see this, try opening one and recorking and refrigerating it until day two and then again trying on the third day and see if you enjoy it more.
