"The 2014 is very tender, displaying the austerity of stony vineyards with chalky soils and a myriad of Mediterranean herbs. The harvest is partially destemmed, which gives it an extra touch of finesse and makes it subtly textured. It has the dusty tannins and salty flavor of limestone soils. It is superb value for money and a very good introduction to Alicante Monastrell; the price is unbelievable." (Wine Advocate 2016 - Robert Parker)

Much more mellow today than when purchased. Very nice Monastrell.

A "Parker" taste. Vanilla that jumps out at you on the nose and palate. A pleasant wine, but lacking in complexity. Personally, it's not to my taste.

Spanish wines often make up for the disappointments that French wines of the same range often cause. But let's continue to be proud of ourselves, until the next crisis.
