The good folk at Yalumba are sticking with the Spanish theme for the Running With Bulls label hence the use Garnache.
Made in the 'Joven' style - no oak, this is ready for immediate enjoyment. Dirt and red fruit straight up, it looks quite light in the glass. It's light in the mouth too. There's a good dash of savoury herbs and peppery spice in the mix and blood orange type characters sit on the flank. Some textural appeal adds another dimension courtesy of a small amount of whole bunch fermentation. But it's the juicy red fruits that steal the show for me. Digging a little deeper I discovered there's a dollop of Tempranillo (4%) in there too.
Incredibly food friendly, I could drink this easily without food to be honest.
Keep an eye out, you'll be able to track it down for just under $20 I reckon.
Drink now.
Very good.
