Cavea Tinto 2024

Cool label. Grape cluster print. This is a Monastrell from Yecla. Lighter color, almost translucent. Aromas of citrus (blood orange), raspberry jelly, marjoram, & celery root? Something earthy in the mix. Flavors are more citrus. Oranges (blood and Cara Cara), pink grapefruit, and tangerines. Plus a hint of cherry and pink plum. A bit of blackberry leaf black tea. Plenty of acid snap. Also has tannins. This is a classic food wine. Complementary and bracing enough to meet chopped salads and tomato sauce dishes with a gentle kiss. Lovely stuff. — 3 days ago

Hécula Organic Monastrell 2022

Decent boring label. Dark color. Smells meaty and a hint savory. Herbs and rocks too. Flavors are juicy and dry with a streak of lovely minerality. This is a great Spanish red. Complex, but crowd pleasing. Hint of earth and plenty of berry-liciousness. — 10 days ago

had this years ago and i feel like they've made some great strides: Monastrell from Yecla can be flabby fruit bombs, but this is a legit wine, great old vine material, had some of the secondary aromas & flavors from southern France, some of that feral quality, some iodine, white pepper along with copious amounts of black & red fruit. polished & poised, smooth thru nice finish — 4 months ago
