Bodega Monteviejo 2005

Bodega Monteviejo 2005

Rating: Robert Parker 90/100
A prominent member of the "Clos de los Siete" group, Bodega Monteviejo now offers a line of wines that, while still in its infancy, matches the quality of its Bordeaux counterparts. A rich wine with great complexity on the nose, blending red fruits with vanilla and toasted notes. A must-try!
