Locals know about these wines, but they keep them to themselves! Don't expect their secret to last long though if this Merlot is anything to go by. This is a young Merlot from a young winery in a young area. Reds from Somontano tend to be well structured with nice body and this is a perfect example. A very pleasant wine, easy to drink, conveying all the notes of a pure Merlot - great aromas and taste and a rather pleasing finish. No wonder so many people think that Somontano is the next big thing!
Young but very ready! Full strong fresh red fruits aromas with an edge of oak. A very intelligent combination of Cabernet Sauvignon with Tempranillo and Merlot, this superb young wine has wonderful blackcurrant aromas, further deepened by liquorice and espresso. Very tasty and fresh - great with good hearty food like stews, grilled or braised lamb.
