Castaño Dulce Monastrell 2010
Yecla, Valencia and Murcia, SpainOpen inviting, spicy chocolate, raisin, dried figs and tobacco aromas. The attack is perfect when chilled showing fine intensity, sweetness and a juicy palate with excellent acidity. More sweet fruit with peppery, prune, molasses, honey, raisin, nutty flavours. Interesting take on monastrell for the curious wine drinker. Try it with chocolate molten lava cake.Tasted: 06 August 2013Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $36.00 | 500ml | special order - The Delf Group |
