Montecillo Gran Reserva 2011

Tasting: Poised, subtle, and delicate gran reserva, classic in its execution. The nose is dried plum husk, desiccated coconut, and dried red fruit. Flavours of dried muscatels, demerara, wild forest berries, undergrowth leather and cigar box meet the palate, with acidity and tannins that indicate the wine will drink well into the 2030’s
