Wine critics reviewsReviews by Parker and Suckling

Similar to the Viña Albina, the 2015 Monte Real Gran Reserva is quite shy and polished with a clean nose and a gentle palate that made it pleasant and easy to drink, not quite so tertiary yet and still showing some fruit and spice. It is round and quite light with fine dusty tannins. 100,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in January 2019 after 36 months in barrel, 50% French and 50% American.

Plum and spice with walnut and earth undertones to the overall fruit on the nose. It’s medium-to full-bodied with round, polished tannins and a flavorful finish. Still very structured, yet rather decadent and rich now, after long aging. Best gran reserva from here in a long time. Drink or hold.
