點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：7126

The 2003 Crianza Montesa, a blend of 40% Grenache, 45% Tempranillo, and the rest Graciano and Mazuelo, was aged in French oak. A beautifully made, elegant Crianza, it offers sweet, herb-tinged, smoky black cherry and currant fruit, lovely freshness, medium body, silky tannin, and a long, persistent finish. It is a delicious red to drink now and over the next 3-4 years. Importer: The Rare Wine Co., Sonoma, CA; tel. (707) 996-4484

More earthy, ripe and bulky than normal, with a lot of smoky/savory aromas. The cherry and apple-skin palate is propelled initially by acidity, and then core depth comes up. For a hot vintage, this wine is expectedly melting and warm. But it still has enough gusto and acid to keep it moving. Drink now through 2008 (with food) and you'll be happy.——M.S.(2/1/2007)—— 88
