(2023) From an estate founded in 1975 and specialising in Monastrell (Mourvèdre), this is more meaty, earthy and herbal than jammy fruit-driven, which Monastrell can sometimes be. Subtle dark chocolate and spicy plum compote begins to emerge. in the mouth, there is black fruit and plum skins, that dry, savoury, lightly nutty and earthy tannin character adding to that effect. There's a lightness to this despite the 14% alcohol, with its quite breezy and dry character, though the finish is brought up a little short by a lemony tartness to the acidity.
