Castell de Falset Montsant 2000

BN#170250 |
It has a rich dark ruby red color as a ruby, clean with a good brilliance.
The aromas are red fruits and balsamic notes, completed with elegant flavours (cocoa, vanilla and toast from the barrel) achieved through the ageing process. It is an elegant and complex wine. In the mouth the wine is wide with smooth long tannin and good, well integrated acidity. It is recommended to cellar this wine for a few years. It is better to decant before serving.
Tasting temperature 16-18 °C.
Wine Spectator
Expressive aromas of black currants and coffee follow through on the muscular palate, amplified by anise, tobacco and mineral notes. When the tannins give way, the finish is clean and long. A full-throttle red that achieves power without ever losing control. Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignane and Tempranillo. Best from 2006 through 2014. 1,500 cases imported.
Score: 92.
