Tasting note
A superb example of Monastrell, with its powerful and intense nose of ripe black fruits supported by subtle hints of spice from a deft use of oak. The vibrant fruit is rounded out with a savoury note and it shows great purity on the finish.
The perfect wine for a barbecue. Ideal to be paired with pasta, rice, braised beef, and lamb. It's a joy with charcuterie and a cheese board.
