Piqueras Black Label Syrah Monastrell 2022

Piqueras Black Label Syrah Monastrell 2022

• Region: Almansa
• Sub-Region: Almansa DO
• Varieties: Syrah, Monastrell

Vineyard Sourced from high-altitude vineyards in Almansa, where limestone soils, intense sunshine, and low rainfall help produce deeply flavored fruit with concentration and spice. The dry continental conditions suit both Syrah and Monastrell particularly well.

Wine A bold and full-flavored red with aromas of blackberry, plum, black pepper, and cocoa. The palate is rich and velvety, with dark fruit depth, soft tannins, and a warming, spicy finish.
