Yecla, Valencia and Murcia, SpainThe Castaño family puts its heart and soul into their wines, and could probably use a helping hand given the COVID-19 challenges all across Spain. I like the fresh fruit-forward style here with earthy monastrell notes colliding with sweet berry fruits. The result is a smooth sipping barbecue red that you can serve liberally at this price. Fresh, juicy, and ready to drink; splash decant for best effect. Burgers, sausages, meatballs, lamb chops and pork all work here.Tasted: 09 April 2020Tasted by: Prices:

Yecla, Valencia and Murcia, SpainThis is a relatively simple, straightforward red with bright berry fruit, which shows a slightly confected, carbonic character from use of 25-30 percent whole cluster. Medium-bodied, fresh, and juicy, it's a solid Tuesday night pour to pair with burgers or tomato-based dishes. Best served slightly chilled.Tasted: 13 November 2019Tasted by: Prices:
