Ego Bodegas Marqués Escriba Monastrell

Deep, dark and ripe, this is a classic Monastrell from the hot, dry region of Jumilla in south-east Spain. It’s full of blackberry, black cherry and a hint of balsamic, underpinned by soft tannins and a warming finish. There’s a subtle meaty note too, which adds complexity and makes it a great partner for grilled lamb, slow-cooked stews or mushroom risotto. A rich yet polished red that punches well above its weight.
