Rated 91 Points from The Wine Spectator at the release price of $85 a bottle, this full-bodied red from Bodegas Ego has been our #1 selling Spanish wine over the past two years! An alluring blend of 70% Monastrell, 20% Syrah and 10% Petit Verdot, aged 18 months in premium new oak barrels sourced from estate vineyards in Jumilla. The region's native Monastrell is one of the most prized varieties of Mediterranean Europe, and on account of the reliably hot, dry summers, ripeness is rarely an issue. Showcasing a core of black cherry, plum and blackcurrant, with good depth and a hint of smokiness. Dark berry flavors become even richer with air and the palate is rich with fine, abundant tannins and a mouth coating finish. Was $19.99 a bottle at the end of 2022, don't miss this special new year price drop to $15.99 plus special free shipping!
"Cocoa, espresso and licorice flavors frame a core of currant, blood orange and menthol details in this rich red. Muscular tannins and citrusy acidity support the thick texture. Bold and heady, in the modern style. Monastrell and Cabernet Sauvignon. Best from 2020 through 2030." The Wine Spectator, 91 Points
