Bodegas Piqueras Castillo de Alamansa Reserva, Alamansa Spain, 2005
Readers rated this wine:
Excellent Value!
It's rare to be able to purchase a wine that has some cellar age on it - more so at a price like this...
A blend of Monastrell, Garnacha and Tempranillo you can expect typical rustic earthy character - wild red berries and cherries, forest floor and leather with cocoa powder and roasted coffee beans and a pinch of finely ground white pepper. Reserved red fruit on the palate, parched earth and wild herbal flavours with the pepper really showing through. Fine tannins cling to the finish.
Pair this wine with rustic dishes, simple meats, cheeses or tomato based sauces.
