Castano Monastrell - Picks UNDER $15

Castano Monastrell (or if you prefer the French name, Mourvedre) is a spectacular little value out of the Yecla DO in Spain. Harvested from 30-year-old vines and fermented in 100% stainless steel, this is a balanced little gem with approachable fruit and a rustic charm. The Wine Advocate called it “a wine to buy by the case”, and of course, I agree.
