Decent boring label. Dark color. Smells meaty and a hint savory. Herbs and rocks too. Flavors are juicy and dry with a streak of lovely minerality. This is a great Spanish red. Complex, but crowd pleasing. Hint of earth and plenty of berry-liciousness. — a year ago
A great modern blend, deep colour, rich palate, still strong tannins, wonderful finish. — 7 years ago
Served with Cherry dessert so fantastic, served cold which made the comparison even better, the grape Mourvedre had dark fruit, some leather and deep finish , wow. — 8 years ago
Worth more than you pay very good with salmon — 10 years ago
Cool label. Grape cluster print. This is a Monastrell from Yecla. Lighter color, almost translucent. Aromas of citrus (blood orange), raspberry jelly, marjoram, & celery root? Something earthy in the mix. Flavors are more citrus. Oranges (blood and Cara Cara), pink grapefruit, and tangerines. Plus a hint of cherry and pink plum. A bit of blackberry leaf black tea. Plenty of acid snap. Also has tannins. This is a classic food wine. Complementary and bracing enough to meet chopped salads and tomato sauce dishes with a gentle kiss. Lovely stuff. — a year ago
It is desert wine. Sweet tannic. Matured. Concentrated. Black fruits with some violet. Familia Castaño Dulce C Monastrell 2004 @814, xiaduo -, 220215-220217 — 5 years ago
Nice body without being too woody as many Chardonnay's can be — 7 years ago
This Mourvèdre is on point. Young and juicy as can be but surprisingly complex on day 2 and then day 3 and even more on day 4. There is fresh dark fruit expected from this young of a vintage and then layered sharp flavors of strawberry and cinnamon, wound up in a long tannic Finnish. Bought for $14 - wow. — 9 years ago
I just freakin love old wine 😍
