This Spanish wine is all about balance and power, the Monastrell grape has a voluptuous body with powerful fruit flavors and a kiss of spice. The tannins on this wine blend in beautifully, they are the perfect balance to the dark fruits. This wine pairs particularly well with Spanish foods. Judges love it too!

TASTING NOTES:
Blueberry
Leather
Spices
A thick-skinned grape with ample dark fruits and tannins. Gentle extraction during fermentation allowed for a soft and fleshy texture with good, firm tannins. We think this is perfect for pairing with Spanish foods.
