Alceno 2011 "12 Meses" Monastrell 750ml

The 2011 Alceno 12 Meses Monastrell opens with deep aromas of ripe black cherry, plum compote, and blackberry, layered with notes of vanilla, cedar, tobacco leaf, and sweet baking spice from its year of oak aging. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and velvety, showing mature dark fruit balanced by hints of cocoa, leather, espresso, and smoky earth. Fine-grained tannins and well-integrated acidity give structure without harshness, while the finish lingers with touches of toasted oak, dried fig, and cracked pepper. With bottle age, the wine has developed a smooth, savoury complexity that complements grilled meats, braised dishes, and aged cheeses beautifully.
