Moristell is a native variety in Somontanto, high up on the Spanish side of the Pyrenes . Given the name, it sounds like just another synonym for monastrell, but this is actually a very old variety that has a lighter structure but is packed with plenty of flavour.

The nose kicks things off with a grassy/tree sap note, then into some lighter cherries and blueberries. In the mouth it’s rounded and medium boddied, some firm acid keeps things edgy enough to be interesting. Hints of choclate, kind of a cranberry note, with dark cherry and spice. Different, in a good way, and a tasty drink. 88 Pts.
