On first open, had almost Zinfandel-like fruitiness with tea leaf tannin. With a bit of air, the wine relaxed, body became lighter side of medium, acid and tannin more noticeable. Overall, elegant 100% Monastrell/Mourvedre. Drinking very nicely now, drink within the next three years. Excellent value, around $15.
