Monasterio de las Vinas Gran Reserva 2005
Cariñena, Aragon, SpainA decade plus old and selling for $18 – here is to Spain. This is a mature mix of garnacha, tempranillo and cariñena that delivers with soft, round, complex savoury flavours of tobacco, spice, old barrels and a bit of spicy fruit cake. An old gentleman from the country that can stand up to any number of grilled lamb or beef dishes but the fruit is fading fast.Tasted: 03 March 2016Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $17.49 | 750ml | BCLS |
