The 2007 El Castro de Valtuille is 100% Mencia sourced from 60+-year-old vines. Deep crimson-colored, it offers up an expressive bouquet of mineral, cherry, raspberry, and spice box. Plush on the palate with layers of savory red fruits and loads of spice, this tasty effort can be enjoyed now but should fill out over the next 1-2 years. It is an outstanding value.
