“The 2011 Fuerza is a blend of primarily Monastrell and Cabernet Sauvignon, traditionally fermented and aged for 12 months in barrels. The nose reveals aromas of black cherry along with a blend of esparto grass, Mediterranean herbs, paprika, and tree bark. The palate is quite spicy, supported by fine, well-defined tannins. ” (Wine Advocate 2015 - Robert Parker) Excellent value for money!
