Casa Castillo 'El Molar' Garnacha 2020
100% Garnacha, sourced from an organic vineyard that closely resembles the terrior of the Southern Rhone: hot, dry summers and a limestone subsoil topped with gravel. Named for the mountain which overshadows Casa Castillo, the El Molar is loaded with aromas of red fruits, strawberry, star anise and some toast from the 12 months in neutral oak. It clocks in at 15% alcohol, which is shocking as it carries this weight in the most elegant of ways.
95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
It's super aromatic, extroverted and expressive, floral, elegant and complex. There is great balance, and the wine feels fresher and less ripe; it's refreshing and has a core of minerality and super fine tannins with pungent flavors. There is precision, elegance and balance, the three words that define the vintage. All the wines are very good value, but this is a steal.
