Shop review: Figaro is 100% Garnacha, made from a selection of the best grapes
grown in the oldest vineyards. While not truly an "oaked wine", a
short stay in oak barrels provides a nice spicy flavor boost. Bright
violet. Dark berry and cherry aromas show a jammy aspect. Supple
and gently sweet, with good lift to its black raspberry and
boysenberry flavors. Smooth and broad on the finish, leaving
behind a hint of spiciness. Extremely easy to drink and an
excellent value

My review: The smell of this wine was very oaky, smoky, and hints of black cherry. The taste was exactly what I smelled. Very powerful oak flavors along with cherries came out. There was also a spice to the wine as well. I liked this wine because of the oak flavors and also because of the spice taste.

I did not have food with this wine.
