Castillo de Almansa 2006 Reserva Red (Almansa)

Country: Spain / Reserva
Variety: Red Blend Central Spain
Winery: Castillo de Almansa / Almansa

Leather, roasted berry and barnyard make for a rustic, warm nose. The palate is grippy, with chewy, roasted black fruit flavors. Meaty, lasting, deep and dense, but also rubbery and a little low on acidic vitality. A Monastrell-Tempranillo blend to drink now.
