"The 2021 Monastrell opens with a savory nose of bramble, oiled leather and dried red berries, followed by a silky, succulent and precise palate. It concludes with a high-toned, refreshing finish framed with a subtle lingering touch of earthy rusticity. It is a charming, slender expression of the variety."

"The 2023 Monastrell from Los Chacayes, Uco Valley, was fermented and macerated with stems. Herbal and balsamic notes mingle with hints of turned earth. Lean and lightly grippy, it delivers flavor intensity and length with precision and clarity. Very nicely done."

"This shows blue fruit with a pleasant herbal note. The clean, medium- to full-bodied palate has delicate, subtle tannins. Super-elegant. Drink now."
