This cuvée from Castaño is made from 100% Monastrell (Mourvèdre), sourced from three non-irrigated vineyard sites in Campo Arriba. The vineyards are located at altitudes of 750-850 meters, are composed of limestone soils, and have vines at an average age of 30 years. The wine is fermented and aged in 100% stainless steel.
It is released young and is meant to be an easy drinking, everyday wine. It has a bright, fresh raspberry bouquet with dense, textured, cherry flavors on the palate. It is well structured with supple, integrated tannins. This wine is a great match to simple, bistro-style fare but has enough body to hold up to hearty dishes including beef, game, and strong cheeses.
