Monastrell

TASTING NOTES:
Cloves
Plum
Black Pepper
Our Monastrell is a classic Spanish wine that showcases black pepper and clove aromas with subtle scents of candied cherry. Acidity levels are modest, allowing a plush, weighty palate to shine. Firm tannins support ripe blackberry and plum flavors before spice returns with lingering hints of sweet cardamom on the finish.
