Bodegas El Montecillo Sa

Beta Wine

Montecillo Vineyard Moon Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Opened and poured into a decanter about five hours prior to dinner. Once poured, this was enjoyed over the course of a couple hours. The 2018 pours a deep garnet with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with fantastic, winsome notes of black currants, blackberries, Serrano peppers, tobacco, purple Flintstones vitamins, dried herbs, rocky earth and gentle warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and sanguine; laden with ferrous minerals.

The nose alone is sensational but it needs a pile of air to fully appreciate and the monumental structure almost demands it. A wine with a very long life yet ahead. Drink now with an extended decant and through 2058+.

Crianza Rioja Tempranillo 2020

Este Tempranillo empieza con cereza roja ligeramente deshidratada, con notas de tabaco y tostados, sutiles notas de eneldo y hierbas secas, y pequeñas notas florales en el fondo. Afrutado y picante en el paladar, con algunas ligeras notas cítricas, de pomelo junto a frutos rojos, con gran longitud y fina acidez.

COLOR:
Color rojo picota brillante, con irisaciones azuladas. De capa alta.

AROMAS:
Intenso y complejo. Aromas de fruta roja acompañados de notas dulces y de pastelería. Aparecen notas de tofe y caramelo de fresa con nata.

GUSTO:
El vino Montecillo Crianza tiene una entrada agradable, en la que aparece mucha fruta roja que nos recuerda al Tempranillo, acompañada de una equilibrada acidez y cuerpo de la Garnacha. Un tanino pulido y bien integrado con las notas afrutadas. Un vino placentero, largo y que deja huella.

Another great cab from Di Costanzo. I get more mineral and less fruit in this one than the Farella. Almost like an Italian-style wine. — 5 years ago
