What a delight! Comanche Cellars returns with fantastic single vineyard Grenache AND single vineyard Carignane. It's the 2019 Dog & Pony Grenache and the 2019 Dog & Pony Carignane.
Check out the huge Overall Ratings on these wines!
We love introducing people to delicious, lesser-known varietals. And while many of you have probably had single varietal Grenache before, we've got an absolutely fantastic one that makes up half (two bottles) of today's 4-pack.
The other half is two bottles of a grape you may have never had as a single varietal wine - Carignane (or Carignan). Originally from Spain (where it is also known as Carinena and Mazuelo) the grape contributes to many of the famous wines from Rioja and the Priorat. It is also grown throughout Southern France where it figures heavily into the wines of the Languedoc.
Known for being an incredibly flexible food wine, we've got a stellar example of old vine Carignane today that features stunning depth and harmony.
Both of these single vineyard examples of their varieties are aged an extremely long time in oak (28 and 31 months) and are extremely small production with just 49 cases made of the Grenache and 150 of the Carignane. And they both get absolutely huge Overall Ratings.
The Grenache comes from the Ness Vineyard in San Benito County and the Carignane from Graziano Vineyard in Redwood Valley. (The Graziano family is one of the oldest grape growing families in Mendocino County and their vineyard includes original plantings by Vincenzo Graziano that are at least 70 years old.)
The Grenache normally retails for a reasonable $34 and the Carignane for just $32. But of course, we aim not only to introduce you to these delicious (both have Perfect 10 Taste Ratings) examples, but also to do it at the lowest cost possible.
For the next day you can get two bottles of the 2019 Comanche Dog & Pony Grenache plus two bottles of the 2019 Comanche Dog & Pony Carignane (for a total of 4 bottles) for just $XX.99, or $XX.XX a bottle. That's a discount of XX%!
Buy multiples and you save even more since you'll never pay more than $6.99 shipping, no matter how many 4-packs you buy. Read on for our full review.

Up first we've got the 2019 Comanche Dog & Pony Grenache. The wine spends 28 months in 35% new French oak and just 49 cases were produced.
From the winery:
With a tantalizing spiced nose, this Grenache offers a mouthful of cranberry, Meyer lemon peel and baking spice flavors. It was aged in neutral oak creating a lovely expression of the fruit with a light and long, juicy finish.

The 2019 Comanche Dog & Pony Grenache opens with an intoxicating aroma of spicy black cherry and cranberry plus lots of varied baking spice, vanilla, a little licorice and even more.
It only takes one sip to know that this a fantastic example of Grenache. With a smooth, round mouthfeel this medium-bodied wine is both balanced and full of flavor. It features tons of deep, rich, juicy fruit similar to the nose with fantastic spice notes throughout. Both easy drinking and full of complexity, I love it!
It ends dry, very long, juicy and spicy and was just as good on day 2. Did I mention this is a fantastic example of the variety? Yum!

Next, we've got the 2019 Comanche Dog & Pony Carignane. The wine spends 31 months in 25% new French Oak and 10% new American oak and 150 cases were produced.
From the winery:
This Old World Spanish varietal is a special treat. With its garnet color in the glass, this unique wine starts with a wave of spice, thyme and cranberry on the nose. Medium bodied with pleasing acidity, this elegant wine makes for food pairing perfection, especially when served oh-so-slightly chilled.

The 2019 Comanche Dog & Pony Carignane begins with a very attractive and harmonious aroma full of deep, dark fruit and spice. It's instantly intriguing.
This one does need a few hours to open up but then it reveals wonderful depth on the juicy, dark fruit along with well-integrated spice and lots of dried herbs. I love the deep flavors and the dense texture. It's wonderful to experience this as a single varietal.
It ends dry, extremely long, chewy and grippy on the mouth-watering finish featuring tons of lasting juicy fruit. This uber-delicious! And it was just as good on day 2.
