Telmo Rodríguez ‘Almuvedre’ Monastrell 2022 Size::1 Bottle with linearity and grip -Fine and polished nose floral, figgy and gently meaty, it's a delicate and perfectly varietal expression of Monastrell. Soft, wide tannins start the mouth off and a long rip of ripe acid in the back half really straightens things out. Almuvedre has long been one of the bargain wines of the world and the style quality value amalgam continues to boggle the mind. Now in screwcap!
