The 2009 Manon is 100% Tempranillo aged for 3 months in French and American oak. Enticing aromas and flavors of rose petal, incense, and black cherry lead to a forward, succulent wine that opens in the glass to reveal a pleasure-bent offering that over-delivers in a big way. This crowd-pleaser will drink well for several more years. One of Spain’s not so well known trends is the increasing quality of wines coming from selected regions of La Mancha (particularly those at higher elevations) as these three wines from Bodegas Mano a Mano demonstrate.

This red shows density and structure, but herbal, anise and espresso notes overshadow plum fruit, and the tannins turn a bit drying. 7,000 cases imported. -TM
