Mira Salinas Monastell 2022

$15.99
In 2013, the Miñano and Gómez families, owners of MGWine Group, purchased Bodega Sierra Salinas, a winery founded in 2000 by the Castaño family of Yecla. Since 2013, the philosophy of the Miñano and Gómez families has been to restore focus on the vineyards, by converting all of them to organic and dry farming. The temptation in such an arid climate as Alicante is to irrigate, but dry farming in this zone forces the root structures to grow deep and produces bunches with a tremendous natural balance of phenolic ripeness and healthy pH.

Aromas of black raspberry, dark chocolate and cassis open on the nose accented by black plum and cherry skin. The juicy palate is an amalgam of cranberry and mulberry bolstered by grippy tannins that seek resolution with time in your glass. Decant and drink now, or enjoy from 2028 onwards. Best Buy.
