•Critic Review: Figaro is 100% Garnacha, made from a selection of the best grapes grown in the oldest vineyards. While not truly an "oaked wine", a short stay in oak barrels provides a nice spicy flavor boost. Bright violet. Dark berry and cherry aromas show a jammy aspect. Suppleand gently sweet, with good lift to its black raspberry and boysenberry flavors. Smooth and broad on the finish, leaving behind a hint of spiciness. Extremely easy to drink and an excellent value.
My Review:This
wine had a dark color and had a strong plum smell. I thought this wine had a very peppery taste with a tart cherry aftertaste. Overall I enjoyed this wine, but I was not a huge fan of the aftertaste.
