This marvelous wine is composed of 80% Monastrell, 15% Syrah, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon from Jumilla, Spain. It spends 12 months in first-year French- and American-oak barrels and is vegan-friendly.
Wine Enthusiast reviewer Mike DeSimone hit the nail on the head: “This dark-ruby wine has a bouquet of black currant, espresso bean, and aniseed. It is soft on impact, then plush tannins set into the palate with flavors of blueberry, dark plum, mocha and oregano that dissolve into a Valencia-orange finish.” He gave it 92 points, saying it should drink well to 2029. I have seen it advertised in five or six stores at less than $10, which is absolutely absurd. Buy it quick. It will not last long on shelves.
