Bodegas Paco García Cantamilano Garnacha: A Taste of Rioja Sunshine

Uncorking a slice of Spanish sunshine, the Bodegas Paco García Cantamilano Garnacha is a vibrant red wine bursting with juicy fruit flavours. Crafted from 100% Garnacha grapes in the heart of Rioja, this captivating drop offers a delightful drinking experience for any wine enthusiast.  

About Bodegas Paco García

Founded in 1983, Bodegas Paco García is a family-run winery nestled in the Rioja Alta subregion of Spain. They are passionate about showcasing the potential of Rioja's diverse terroir, with a focus on sustainable viticulture and modern winemaking techniques. Their Cantamilano Garnacha is a testament to their dedication to quality and innovation.  

Tasting Profile: A Symphony of Red Fruits and Spice

In the Glass: The wine boasts a captivating deep ruby colour with vibrant garnet hues, hinting at the richness within.

On the Nose: A delightful bouquet unfolds, dominated by aromas of ripe red fruits like cherries, strawberries, and raspberries. Subtle floral notes of violets and a hint of white pepper add a touch of intrigue. As the wine opens up, a whisper of vanilla and baking spice emerges, hinting at the brief time spent ageing in oak barrels.  

On the Palate: The first sip reveals a juicy and medium-bodied wine with a refreshing acidity that dances on the tongue. The explosion of red fruit flavours from the nose translates beautifully, with a touch of black cherry adding a deeper layer. The oak influence is subtle, offering a hint of vanilla and spice without overwhelming the fruit-forward character. The tannins are soft and well-integrated, creating a smooth and pleasant finish.

Serving Suggestions:

  • Temperature: Serve the Bodegas Paco García Cantamilano Garnacha slightly chilled, between 15-17°C (59-63°F), to fully appreciate its fresh and vibrant fruit character.
  • Decanting: While not essential, decanting for 30 minutes can help soften the tannins and further enhance the aromas.

Food Pairings: A Culinary Adventure

The delightful fruitiness and well-balanced structure of the Cantamilano Garnacha make it a versatile food pairing wine. Here are some suggestions to elevate your dining experience:

  • Tapas & Pintxos: Embrace the Spanish spirit by pairing the wine with a selection of tapas or pintxos. Grilled chorizo, roasted peppers, and patatas bravas are all excellent choices. The bright acidity of the wine cuts through the richness of the tapas, creating a delightful harmony.
  • Grilled Meats: The robust fruit flavours of the Garnacha complement grilled meats beautifully. Pair it with a juicy ribeye steak, grilled lamb chops, or herb-marinated chicken for a satisfying meal. The wine's tannins help cleanse the palate between bites of succulent meat.
  • Vegetarian Delights: Don't shy away from pairing this wine with vegetarian dishes. Roasted vegetables, lentil stew, or mushroom risotto make fantastic accompaniments. The acidity of the wine cuts through the richness of the vegetables while highlighting their earthy notes.
  • Cheese Pairing: To create a truly memorable experience, pair the Bodegas Paco García Cantamilano Garnacha with a semi-hard cheese like Manchego or a rich and creamy Comté. The creamy texture of the cheese complements the wine's smooth mouthfeel, while the cheese's salty notes enhance the fruity flavours.

The Final Sip: A Celebration of Rioja

The Bodegas Paco García Cantamilano Garnacha offers a delightful exploration of the Garnacha grape and the unique terroir of Rioja. With its vibrant fruit character, balanced acidity, and subtle oak influence, it's a wine that is both approachable and captivating. So, uncork a bottle, explore the exciting world of Spanish Garnacha, and let the sunshine of Rioja fill your glass.
