Country: Spain / Pie Franco
Variety: Monastrell Levante
Winery: Casa Castillo / Jumilla
Alluring aromas of cocoa powder, berry fruits, graphite and raw oak lead to a jammy palate with density and weight. This old-vines Monastrell tastes of chocolaty oak and herbal blackberry. On the finish, it’s tight and rugged, with mildly scratchy tannins and a saucy aftertaste. Drink through 2022.
