Deep, intense purple colour. Aromatic with notes of ripe cherry, leather, tobacco and mint. Robust flavours of dark fruit, cloves and chocolate. Lovely structure. Pair with prime rib burger. Tasted Sept 2017
Monasterio De Las Viñas San José De Aguarón Reserva (2012) is a robust and juicy Grenache, Tempranillo and Cariñena red wine blend from the Cariñena wine region. Pair with bison burgers. Enjoy now and for the next five years. - Community Wine Reviews

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
