Bodegas Teso la Monja Romanico Red Spanish Wine 750 mL

“Brambly wild-raspberry and smoky, stony aromas lead to a rich and juicy core of plump, flavorsome red and dark plums on the palate. Great depth”- 93 Pts, James Suckling

” A bonafide fruit bomb, the 2016 Romanico checks in as 100% Tina de Toro that saw an extended maceration and a short elevage of 6 months in used French oak. Blueberries, violets, plums, and peppery herbs all flow to a full-bodied, fresh, balanced effort that dishes out way more fruit than its humble price point would have you believe. Drink it over the coming 3-4 years.” 90 pts, Jeb Dunnuck

“I also got to taste the 2016 Romanico in the same sitting as the 2015, which is always a good opportunity to compare both vintages. 2016 was a slow and cool harvest following some rains, and this wine has slightly lower alcohol and more freshness. This has more definition, more finesse and a subtle touch of fennel and aromatic herbs that adds an extra dimension to it. It’s still young but already approachable (better with food), with a juicy palate and really fine tannins. There is good ripeness without excess. “- 90 pts, Wine Advocate
