Good priced Garncacha with pork and green mole question

for a IWFS wine dinner. Sticking to a Spanish theme for Mexican food dinner Cava Rose, Godello with seafood enchiladas and strongly considering a Garnacha with the pork. Would love a Rioja but I think the Garnacha may go better and be a better price. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Las Rochas and Vina Alarba old vines are both readily available and on the low end price wise. @$10US Evodia is also in this range but I find it to be lacking in character- a touch sweet.

Personally I would look for a well priced Montsant or Priorat though I would have no idea of what might me in your market.

Excellent choice from the best producer in Valdeorras, if I may say so, and understandably not very cheap. The same producer makes a cheaper wine called "Bolo Mountain Wine". Is it sold in the U.S.?

I've never seen the Bolo Mountain, just the As Sortes and the Louro do Bolo. Good producer!

I used to prefer Louro to As Sortes, which is good considering the prices of both wines. And then one day I had an As Sortes with a couple of years of bottle age and, wow. Now I usually buy a couple of bottles of As Sortes every year just to drink two years later.

I may say that in Spain it is difficult to find aged whites in wine lists or shops, because most customers believe that white always has to be from the last harvest.

One of my favorite Spanish whites is usually found aged at that is the Mas de Encompte Priorat.
