Description

From the good 1969 vintage, this Spanish vintage red wine from Aragon exhibits a dark garnet colour and has a dried herb-scented nose. It is medium-bodied, with moderate tannin and has a smooth fruit filled finish.


Carinena is just one of several DO titles used for the wines of Aragon, northern Spain. Winemaking in the area dates back to at least Roman times, and records from that era confirm that locals drank Carinena wines mixed with honey. Many other historical records attest to the quality of the wines from Carinena; King Ferdinand I of Aragon listed it as his preferred wine above all others and the French philosopher Voltaire thought it heavenly. Wine has long been the economic mainstay of the region and a source of great pride and renown.

Condition

Good level, bin-soiled labels with slight tears.
