Deep ruby red color with very strong & ripe aromas of black fruits, tobacco, and mint on the nose. Full-bodied with very nice & ripe taste of blackberry or other sweet dark fruits, vanilla, herbs, and black pepper on the palate. Strong texture, ripe & silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and followed by very spicy aftertaste at the end. Very good value for money & delicious.

Always a good question when rehabbing a new knee: "what Spanish Monstant goes best with a mixture of Oxycodone and brutal physical therapy?" While admittedly it's doubtful that my Orthopedic Surgeon or Cardiologist would be the ideal professionals to answer this question or would find it either entertaining or healthy I'm just the guy that can now answer it; Val De Calas '07! Sure it might be the Oxy talking but the nice balance of wood, blackberry and gravel keeps this deep but accessible Monstant right down my alley. I like the little note of almost Boudeaux funk that keeps it from being "just another good Spanish red". So if you're rehabbing or just sitting down to a meal of Albondigas try it out!
