Puerta de Granada 1997 Monastrell Crianza 1997 (Jumilla)

Price $15

This is a nice example of the Mourvèdre that’s coming out of Jumilla in southeast Spain. It’s fleshy and full, with a welcome earthiness. Flavors of black plum and cherry cover the palate prior to a drying, tannic finish. This wine manages to pick up the pace after airing, always a sign of quality. From Bodegas Huertas. — M.S.

Puerta de Granada 2000 Vino Tinto Tempranillo (Jumilla)

Price $9

The nose is open and musky. Dark and deep flavors of cherry and plum seem a bit unrefined and robust. The finish is dry and tannic, so much so that it coats your mouth. It’s a fruit ball with power, but one without much balance or structure. — M.S. (11/1/2002)

Puerta de Granada 1996 Puerta de Granada - Reserva Monastrell (Jumilla)

Online Exclusive

Price $20

Medium-bodied with gritty, oaky tannins; some tart plum fruit lurks under the oak, but it's hard to find. Nose is fairly closed, but for some tarry notes. — D.T. (4/1/2003)
