Like other reviewers said, and the lady in line with me said, this is a very well priced wine that tastes more than that. Less fruit forward than my tastes prefer, but still pretty good! We had it with braised short ribs, and cooked with it, too. Certainly a value red.

Very nice blend of Monastrell Garnacha and Tintorera. Full bodied with burst of black berries. Nice finish. Smooth and pleasant to the palate. Great with grilled steaks.

Not always a Granache fan but like the Monastrell blend. Full bouquet of fruit on the fruit end. Should let it open up to enjoy.
