Bodegas Senorio de Barahonda Yecla Carro 2016 750 ML

Introduction

Carro is a ridiculous value in a full-bodied, complex, rich and savory dry red wine. Dense ruby/purple with notes of blackberry and blueberry fruit, licorice and camphor, the wine is totally unoaked and naked. Producer Information Carro, made by Bodegas Senorio de Barahonda in the DO of Yecla, is a perfect example of how Spain offers the best wine values in the world! The wine is made with grapes from vines that were planted in 1977 and are tended in limestone soil which receives a mere 8-10 inches of rainfall each year. The state-of-the-art winery is a perfect “kitchen” to transmit this unique terroir. Carro is 100% un-oaked made with organically grown grapes. With a winemaking heritage that dates back to 1925, the Candela family owns about 340 hectares (840 acres) of vineyards. Yecla is one of only a few wine regions in Spain that has remained unaffected by phylloxera. Carro’s richness, depth and profound earthy flavors will transport you to the arid, rugged and tranquil terrain of Yecla.
