Altovinum Evodia, Aragon, Spain, 2017 Old Vine Garnacha, $9.99-$13.99, 90 points, poured a deep cranberry red with a broad clear meniscus and a dense neckless of hanging tears.
Aromas were a medley of fruit, especially mulberry and blueberry with hints of smoke and flowers.
Full-bodied red wine with good acidity and a firm underlayment of tannin sported an expected fruit bomb nicely nuanced with sweet tobacco and earth.
Finished long on the trailing palate, warm pepper spices, wood, fig, and a well-balanced 14.5% alcohol.
I've had several vintages of this wine, and I liked this one as well or better than the other vintages (High QPR).
