Description
Wine Enthusisasts #1 Best Buy of 2008
Young red wine, blend of Syrah-35%- and Monastrell-65% The grapes used in the production of this wine are grown in our own vineyards. The Monastrell is from the Cerrillares vineyard at 600 m above sea level and the Syrah at the Castillo de Luzón vineyard at 700 m above sea level. Both of these vineyards have a maximum yield of 4000 kg of grape per hectare. The grapes were handpicked.
It is a full-throttle, exuberant, dense ruby/purple-coloured effort with loads of crème de cassis, liquorice, truffle, and acacia flower characteristics. This exotic, deep, broad, intense red should be drunk over the next 3-4 years, although it may last longer.
