Monterebro 2012 Crianza Red (Jumilla)

Country: Spain / Crianza
Variety: Red Blend Levante
Winery: Monterebro / Jumilla

This ripe wine from a warm year is raisiny up front, with additional scents of molasses and baked plum. Choppy, clampy tannins frame oaky flavors of red plum and raspberry, while oak spice and resiny flavors push a woody finish that includes a strong minty accent. This is 85% Monastrell and 15% Syrah.
