MONTESCO PARRAL 2010

Tasting Notes

In the glass this wine showed a deep red color with violet hues. In nose was explosive, scattering everywhere complex aromas like fruit (a lot of small red and black fruits), herbal (mentholated, sod), minerals notes (graphite, chalk, stone), spices, coffee and bitter chocolate.

On the palate this wine was honest, and always with fruit in front. It showed a medium body and intense entry. It was extremely fresh, with stylish minerality integrated perfectly with oak wood. Delicious aftertaste of medium-long finish.

In conclusion, this wine was tasty, straight, vertical easy to drink and highly addictive.

This wine scored 94 points by Robert Parker (Wine Advocate). Who recommended drinking until 2016. We never scored a wine, and do not know if this score was much or little, but we consider that this blend is a great wine and  now is having an excellent moment.
