WINE OF THE WEEK: ATANCE BOBAL
You might not have heard of Bobal.
That’s exactly why you should drink it.
This one’s from Valencia and it’s an absolute crowd-pleaser — juicy, bright, and dangerously easy to keep going back to.
Think:
🍒 Dark cherries
🫐 Blackberries
🌶️ A little spice
😏 Very, very drinkable
It’s not heavy, not boring, not trying too hard… just a seriously good glass of red.
Perfect with steak. Perfect with friends.
Also perfect when you said you were “just having one”.
