Overview:
The Castaño Hecula Monastrell 2021 is a masterful representation of Monastrell from carefully tended adult bush vines. Aged for six months in a blend of French (80%) and American (20%) oak barrels, this wine seamlessly marries its ripe fruit character with subtle, well-integrated oak nuances. With its vibrant ruby red colour and exceptional balance, this is a wine of elegance and complexity, perfect for refined palates.
Tasting Notes:
The wine exhibits a shiny ruby red hue with medium-high intensity, clean and bright in the glass. The nose opens with aromas of ripe red fruit, plums, and blueberries, complemented by subtle toasted notes of vanilla and cacao. On the palate, it is inviting and harmonious, offering flavours of raspberry jam alongside gentle hints of sweet spices and oak. Soft tannins and balanced acidity create a fresh, long, and enveloping finish. An excellent companion to roasted meats, hearty stews, or mature cheeses.
