Fuerza Monastrell-Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

Introduction

Intense cherry-red colour with violet shades. Delicate black fruit aroma with high roast and smoky features. Structured, subtle and smart palate, ripe appetizing and a sweet tannins marked by elegance.

90 Points – Vinous Inky purple. Black and blue fruit, candied licorice and vanilla aromas take on a smoky topnote with air. Broad, supple and appealingly sweet, offering cherry preserve, blackberry and dark chocolate flavors and a spicy jolt of cracked pepper. Finishes broad and long, with rounded tannins and lingering spiciness.

90 Points – Wine Spectator This rich red delivers ripe, bold flavors of blackberry and currant, with cola, loamy earth and orange peel accents. Firm tannins support the thick texture, and orange peel acidity keeps this lively. A big wine, showing structure and balance. Monastrell and Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink now through 2031.

90 Points – Wine Enthusiast Black fruit aromas dominate the dark nose and carry to the tightly packed palate. Flavors of spiced berries and toast are the main focus for this blend of Monastrell and Cabernet, enjoyable for those who seek out riper, oaked offerings.
