Description

The Bodegas Castaño ‘Hécula’ Organic Monastrell is sourced from from Las Gruesas and Pozuelo vineyards which are situated at an altitude 750 metres above sea level and are now 50+ years old. The organic Monastrell grapes were harvested by hand and selected on a sorting table upon arrival at the winery. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks and then the wine was aged for six months in French and American oak barrels prior to blending and bottling. Deep ruby in colour the Hécula Organic Monastrell  displays vibrant aromas of ripe red cherries, plums and blueberries, complemented by subtle toasted aromas. On the palate, it has notes of ripe raspberry, vanilla and cacao. [#intro]Succulent ripe black fruits, notes of sweet spice, vanilla & supple ripe tannins…[/intro]
