Come! Step right in. Mind not Tabitha, her mange is not…how to say?…catching. She is a good girl, Tabitha. Though her purring is loud, no? Pssst Pssst! Away, Tabitha! We have a visitor, she-manx. Begone.
Ah yes, the wine. The wine! We chose this location in the rolling hills of South Bronx for its rich mineral content and steady foot traffic. It has always been our dream to own a winery. But first we had to settle for this bodega. Let me pour you a glass of the Grenache and your mouth will do the talking, yes?
Mmmmm. You taste notes of spicy red fruits? Backed by a strong backbone of lottery tickets and high-volume grain alcohol? Delicioso, no? The tastes come from making the wine right here in our bodega. This vintage, it has a note of…is that…old mop head?
Excuse me, my friend. I must restock my supply of unripe bananas and enormous yucca roots. Now that the winery has taken off I probably don’t need to keep running the bodega. But I love the work, yes?
2010 Barranc Del Rei Monastrell 750ml 3-Pack
Bright ruby. Aromas of ripe cherry and spice. Soft and fruity in the mouth, with flavors of black plum and raspberry, and a fresh, clean finish.
2010 La Tribu Grenache Blend 750ml 3-Pack
Deep ruby color. Complex red and black fruits on the nose, with a layer of spice. Medium body, with ripe fruit and great balance of acidity and tannins. Round, well-structured, and full of character.
