Wine Tasting 18

Vina Galana Tempranillo Sangria 
Name: Vina Galana Sangria
Variety: Tempranillo
Region: La Mancha
Country: Spain
Year: N/A
Price: $6.95

Yankee Spirit's Review: Medium ruby color with aromas of raspberry, red cherry and licorice. Medium bodied with good structured tannins that are soft and makes the wine linger on the palate.

My Review: The first aromas I was able to detect from this wine was that of cinnamon. I do not really enjoy cinnamon so that scent was pretty overwhelming to me. The taste of this wine only reinforced the cinnamon flavor I got before. I tried to recognize some more flavors past the immediate taste and was able to pick up on some citrus and licorice flavors. I did not have this wine paired with food. I was not expecting much from this wine, but I did not like it enough to be interested in trying it again.
