Wine Review: Bodegas Navajas Crianza

Bodegas Navajas Crianza
Grape: 95% Tempranillo, 5% Mazuelo
Country: Spain

This wine is made with cold maceration and rested in stainless still barrels. No oaks were used. This helps to keep young and wild berries aromas significantly bright. 

This wine has easy to find aromas of forest black berries, some ripe plums and black cherry.

In palate there are cherries, blackberries and a bit of chocolate. Its a complex, meduim-bodied and medium-long wine.

Food pairing: cold meats, stews and all kinds of red meat. Also good with rich meat salads or med-spicy sauce salads.

I had it with lamb chops and grilled vegetables.

Supplier in UAE is A&E. You can buy this wine in some of their stores:
