This beauty from the southeast corner of Spain delivers excellent concentration of black fruits, supple tannins that make for a smooth palate, and a touch of wood spice to complete the package. Fleshy and fruit-driven, this beautifully balanced Monastrell (aka Mourvedre) is a stunner. A Platinum Award winner at the 2018 Sommelier Challenge International Wine & Spirits Competition.
