Filon Spanish Red
A small stock Spanish red, picked by hand at our Commack counter.
The story behind Filon
Garnacha is the Spanish name for Grenache, a grape that thrives in hot, dry country and gives reds that are round, generous and low in tannin. In Spain it often comes from old bush vines, which keep yields low and push dark berry and plum flavor into the glass, with a warm earthy edge and a soft finish.
We keep Filon Garnacha in Commack in a very small quantity, one to two bottles at a time, so it is a bottle worth asking about at the counter.

Soft tannin and easy fruit make it a low fuss bottle for a Tuesday dinner.
