The 2022 Monastrell has no Garnacha whatsoever, as the variety suffered a lot with the hail and was not used for the entry-level wine, which is 100% Monastrell (last year, it had up to 15% Garnacha). It matured in 500-liter and 5,000-liter oak foudres for nine months on average, as it blends different wines from different parts of the property. It has 14.5% alcohol and is juicy and Mediterranean, with floral notes, ripe berry fruit. It`s faintly candied, especially when compared with the other wines, with lots of aromatic herbs. It`s clean and tasty, with a balanced and elegant palate where the tannins are polished and elegant. It develops a nice note of orange peel that gives it freshness, with a Mediterranean note of esparto grass. This is a triumph and an example of how you can achieve great results through blending. Production was 106,000 bottles. It was bottled in February 2024. 93 points
