Tarima Organic Alicante Monastrell
Alicante, Valencia, Spain
Super ripe, fruit driven, big bodied wine. 14.5% alcohol puts it out of balance though...

The Wine Advocate - "From another organically certified vineyard, the 2012 Tarima Monastrell Organic displays an opaque purple color along with abundant blueberry and black raspberry fruit intermixed with a hint of crushed chalk. Medium to full-bodied with amazing concentration, this big, savory, mouthfilling red should drink nicely for 5-6 years."

Vinous / Antonio Galloni - "Bright purple. Fresh, spice-accented dark berry scents, complicated by lavender and peppery spices. Fleshy and smooth in texture, offering sweet blackberry and spicecake flavors and a hint of licorice. Fine-grained tannins add shape to the finish, which leaves floral and allspice notes behind. It's hard to beat this wine for sheer value."

Light tannins on the front end that fade into velvety red fruits, especially after breathing for a little while. Excellent with and without food.
