Alto Moncayo

Alto Moncayo Garnacha is dense purple in color with a nose of raspberries and black cherries followed by chocolate, minerals and tar notes. It is big and full-bodied with intensely concentrated flavors and sweet tannins. Aged for over a year in French and American oak. The blockbuster finish is simply exceptional.

Wine Advocate

The same can be said for the 2007 Alto Moncayo, also 100% Garnacha. It offers up a similar aromatic and flavor profile, just at a slightly higher octane level. This opulent effort is all about pleasure; give it 3-4 years of additional cellaring if you’d like it a bit more civilized.

Score: 94. —Jay Miller, April 2010.

Wine Spectator

Rich yet supple, this expressive red wraps chocolate and cola notes around a core of ripe cherry and berry fruit. There's a firm but lively structure and a warm, spicy finish. Drink now through 2014. 600 cases imported.

Score: 91. —Thomas Matthews, June 15, 2010.
