Alberto Orte 2012 Elo Monastrell (Yecla)

Country: Spain / Elo
Variety: Monastrell Levante
Winery: Alberto Orte / Yecla

Leathery, scratchy black-fruit aromas are striated and minty, with a note of oak. This Monastrell feels grabby, hefty and on the bold and bulky side. Jammy blackberry flavors come with minty green notes, while this tastes mildly grassy and feels a bit hot on the finish.
