J. Garcia Carrion is the producer of Pata Negra, a typical expression of 100% macabeo grapes that happen to be organic. Crisp apple and pear, plus a touch of cinnamon, are clear signposts en route to a creamy finish that offers hints of banana. Nothing fancy here — this is a sub-ten-dollar wine, after all — but in simplicity, Pata Negra does at least manage to find some strong footing.
