Looking for "spicey" wines...

[Thomas]

In Spain, they use Garnacia (Grenache in France) in many of their red wine blends. It is likely the source of the spice. You certainly can get that grape variety from drinking Rhone wines, but you can also get it, and other spicy grape varieties, from the Languedoc or Provence. Look for Corbiere, Gaillac, St. Chinian, and a few others in the southern reaches.
