$9.99 with 12pack Sampler Case!
In 1994 the Martínez family, owners of Bodegas Faustino, the single largest producer
of Reserva and Gran Reserva wines from Spain's renowned Rioja region, bought the
1,477-acre Finca Los Trenzones estate in the province of La Mancha. Julio Martinez has made
it his personal quest to realize the untapped potential of La Mancha wines, with the long-term
goal of establishing the wines of La Mancha on the same level as other top-quality wine
regions of Spain. This one is 100% Tempranillo aged in American oak for 12 months. The wine is deep garnet red with purple tones with round, expressive, well-defined ripe fruit flavors
of cassis and black cherry, fine tannins, a soft dryness, and an elegant finish. It is an
excellent match with lamb, grilled meats, and hearty vegetarian fare.
