Brand Hacienda Monasterio
Origin Spain, Ribera del Duero
Alcohol/vol 14.5%
Very intense red-violet color. The nose is very mineral with a lot of red fruit and a background of mint. Very complex aromas in perfect harmony with the tertiary aromas of its long aging in barrels. The mouth is soft and very balanced with the nervous tannin that provides structure and freshness, giving way to its fruity and mineral carácter. The balance, minerality and freshness of the wine allow a great aging in the bottle.

The 2020 Hacienda Monasterio shows what Sisseck calls a "neo-classical" style of Ribera, with more freshness and 14.5% alcohol, harvested early and with higher yields. And possibly because of the Cabernet in the blend (around 10%), which also includes some Merlot and Malbec, the wine has great freshness (pH is 3.5) and avoids some of the excesses from the past. So, higher yields, an earlier harvest and careful oaking resulted in a more elegant wine. To me, it goes back to the benchmark Hacienda Monasterio, which for me is the 1996. A triumph over the natural conditions of the year. 211,200 bottles and some larger formats produced.
