The 2019 Tarima is a delicious creation from Bodegas Volver in Alicante, Spain. Made from Monastrell, the wine offers aromas of black raspberry, blueberry, lavender, sweet tobacco, vanilla and mocha. Full body, balanced tannins and acidity, and a dense and savory finish, this wine will pair Well with barbecued meat. Palate: black cherry, raspberry, lavender, cocoa, sweet tobacco and mocha. Enjoy!
