Monasterio de las Viñas Gran Reserva 2013 750ml

Monasterio de las Viñas Gran Reserva 2013 is a Spanish red at 13.5% ABV, blended from Garnacha, Tempranillo and Cariñena.

As a Gran Reserva, it spent 24 months in barrel before further ageing in bottle.

The label recalls the Cistercian monks who built their monastery in the area and tended its vineyards.

A mature, savory red for roasts and stews.

Good wine rewards a little care in serving. Whites and rosés show best chilled to around 45 to 50°F, while reds are at their most expressive slightly below room temperature, around 60 to 65°F. Opening the bottle and letting it breathe for a few minutes, or pouring it into a decanter, helps the aromas open up.
