Hacienda Monasterio 2020 is a dark, bright and concentrated red wine with complex aromas of ripe black fruit accompanied by notes of liquorice and mineral hints. On the palate, the entry is fresh, clean and lively. This is a medium-bodied wine with well-polished tannins and energetic acidity. The finish is long, smooth and silky.
Somehow I didn't taste the 2017 Hacienda Monasterio, but I did taste the 2017 Reserva, which is quite impressive for such a challenging year in Ribera del Duero. They suffered less from the frost on the property, which is quite warm and usually frost-free. The wine has a seductive nose that combines raspberries and cranberries with herbs and flowers. It's ripe at 15% alcohol, but it does not show heat or alcohol. This is 80% to 82% Tinto Fino and the rest Cabernet Sauvignon that matured in barrel for some 20 months. It's medium to full-bodied, juicy, rich and velvety, with fine, chalky tannins. The wine really transcends the challenges of the vintage and delivers more than I expected. 35,000 bottles produced.
