Note di degustazione
(85% tempranillo, 10% graciano and 5% mazuelo; made from a selection of the bodega's best grapes in special vintages): Opaque ruby. Complex, deeply pitched aromas of cherry compote, blackberry, fresh flowers, incense and licorice; showing a distinctly exotic character. Then impressively concentrated and rich, but with energetic minerality adding lift to its sweet dark fruit preserve and floral pastille flavors. Alluringly silky and high-pitched wine with a vibrant, very persistent finish that echoes the floral note.

The 2005 200 Monges Reserva is a blend of 85% Tempranillo, 10% Graciano, and 5% Mazuelo that spent 20 months in French and American oak before bottling without filtration. A glass-coating opaque purple color, it reveals a brooding bouquet of earthy minerals, exotic spices, lavender, licorice, black cherry, and blackberry. Dense, layered, and powerful in the style of the outstanding 2005 vintage, it will reward another 6-8 years of cellaring and provide a drinking window extending through 2030.
