Montecastro, Ribera del Duero 2022
Montecastro is backed by 'first growth' Hacienda Monasterio, sharing the same winemaker, Carlos de la Fuente, who dubs it Monasterio’s baby brother. Founded in 2000 this leans towards a more modern interpretation of Ribera del Duero with very high altitude vines at 950m above sea level in Castrillo de Duero, which tempers the hot climate, with an overall energetic, fresh and elegant expression. Made with 95% tempranillo and a splash of cabernet sauvignon, it sees three months of barrel ageing followed by a further 16 months in concrete tank which adds to the fresh, fruit-driven persona. Generous, mature blackcurrant and blueberry fruit governs the aromatics backed by good, fine-grained tannic structure and acidity. Serious, fresh and with great ageing potential.
