Spanish Garnacha from Trader Joe’s, we review the Pagos Del Moncayo Prados Garnacha from Campo de Borja.
Garnacha from Campo de Borja, Aragon, Spain.
No other info on the production of this specific wine is available but it comes from Bodem Bodegas, which is part of the Axial Vinos family of wines. They’ve had many similar good quality Spanish wines, particularly made from Garnacha, at Trader Joe’s over the years so that’s at least a promising sign. Let’s check it out.
The Prados Garnacha Cuvee is available exclusively at Trader Joe’s and retails for $14.99. It is imported by Evaki.
From the bottle:
Cuvée – Simply put, is the best of a vintage, or a premium blend within a vintage. The Prados winery is an artisan winery focused on sustainability and community. Prados Cuvee is crafted from carefully selected Garnacha grapes, and hand harvested to represent the best of the vintage.

The 2022 Pagos Del Moncayo Prados Garnacha Cuvée opens with a pleasing, inviting aroma of dark ripe fruit with some garrigue-like herbal notes and a touch of spice.
The wine tastes smooth and medium bodied and features similar flavors to the nose but with juicy fruit, that is a bit brighter in the mouth. It also has good depth and balance and some light well-integrated spice notes. This is a nice example of Garnacha that is easy to drink. It gets better as it has more air too.
It ends dry, very long and lasting on the finish and was perhaps even slightly better on day 2.
