I have been wanting to drink more spanish wine lately. The spanish wines I have had at parties and friends houses have been excellent. I finally went to Western in M.B. and asked for a recommendation. This little $10 jewel was handed to me. I'll be back. Lifted description is below.
100% Monastrell.
Bodegas Castano has long been an advocate of the Monastrell varietal in the zone and its use has increased in other bodegas as a result. Known as Mourvedre in France and other parts of the world, the varietal is perhaps best known for its influence on the wines of Chateauneuf-du-Pape where the terroir and climate is not dissimilar to that of Yecla with both benefiting from a very warm, Mediterranean climate with warm days and nights.
