Natalie's Score: 88/100

Juicy and easy drinking with a supple smooth texture and medium-bodied weight. Aromas of sweet fleshy plums. perfect for hamburgers. OTHER: The nose showcases aromas of plums, cherries, and boysenberries with accents of pepper and minerals. Plum, blueberry, and cherry flavours emerge on the palate alongside spicy, oaky, and earthy elements. A wine with a supple mouth-feel and plush tannins, chicken fajitas would make a fine pairing. And, it's a great value, too. Score - 89 (fbworld.com, Nov. 9, 2015).

Cariñena food pairings: linguini marinara, slow-braised lamb shanks with tomato and garlic, tomato garlic and clam sauce over penne.
