Barahonda Casa del Canto Roble 2018

Barahonda Casa del Canto Roble is praised for its well-balanced blend of herbs, fruit, and spices, with rich notes of chocolate, liquorice, and vanilla. It features a smooth oak finish and bold berry and blackcurrant flavors. Some find it intense and deep, while others appreciate its affordability and elegance. The wine's lush texture and integrated tannins provide a velvety, lingering finish.

This expressive red from Yecla reveals a deep garnet hue, offering a bouquet of ripe blackberries and plums, intertwined with subtle hints of cedar and spice. On the palate, it showcases a harmonious balance between its robust tannic structure and vibrant acidity, underscoring its youthful vigor. The mid-palate is enriched with layers of dark chocolate and a whisper of dried herbs, leading to a lingering finish with a mineral edge. This wine exemplifies the potential of Monastrell blends, capturing the essence of its Mediterranean terroir with finesse and depth.
