Description
Beautiful red wine from the area around the village of Cenicientos, specifically from the 'Cien Lanzas' vineyards. These are the highest vineyards of 4 Monos and slope steeply: the highest point is at 960 meters altitude, the lowest point at 830 meters. The vineyards are planted with mainly Garnacha Tinta, which are pruned like bushes and are surrounded by forests and gigantic boulders. Truly spectacular!
The wine that is made from it is also very aromatic. It is very subtle with cherry fruit and rosehip, something like hibiscus, a touch of mint, a pinch of cinnamon. Fairly low tannin and a fresh acidity make the wine light-footed. Very refined, if we may say so ourselves. Should be drunk a bit cooler.
