This wine has plenty of lively flavors and proudly exhibits a dark ruby color with aromas of spicy blackberries and black cherries along with hints of tobacco and earthiness that are so typical of Tempranillo from Ribera del Duero, where the grape is also called Tinto Fino. In the mouth, this wine has great expressions of dried dark fruit and a bit of spice with an excellent texture. Great value! - Jeff Prather

2011 Barahonda Monastrel
Murcia, Spain
Call 415-288-0470 for help with your order.
10% case discount on 12 or more bottles, any combination. Use promo code "12plus".
One sip and you are given a clue that this wine was grown in a warm region in the south. It is one of the few 100% Monastrell (Mourvedre) wines from the Yecla region, aged in stainless steel. It has ripe, wild raspberry aromas with a juicy fruit quality that is accompanied by a touch of earth or terroir. Sin Madera means without wood, so the fruit is clear to shine through. It is cheerful on the tongue and friendly in its texture: smooth, round, bright, spicy and juicy. It is ever so easy to drink and for that reason may prove a touch dangerous. The delicious flavors make it worth the risk. This is a bargain quaffer. - Jeff Prather
