Monje Hollera Listan Negro Tenerife Spain 2012 750ml
Heady florals, crushed berries, and licorice spice fill the nose, followed by a fresh, medium bodied palate of tart cranberry, creamy cherry, and cocoa nibs, with savory dried earth and herbs on the long finish.
A perennial favorite from Tenerife's historic Monje winery, Hollera consists of carbonically macerated Listan Negro and from incredibly old (100-200 years old), own-rooted vines trained close to the stony yet fertile ground at 500 meter altitude, overlooking the sea.
