Hacienda Monasterio Reserva 2015

They still produce a limited quantity of 2015 Reserva from eight hectares within the estate vineyards, an east-facing plot of very pure limestone, and the final blend has some 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. 2015 was a very warm and ripe year in Ribera del Duero, when the grapes achieved 15% alcohol without any problems, and the wine shows the ripe year for Cabernet. It does have the refreshing addition of the limestone soils that help to balance the wine. 37,525 bottles produced. It was bottled after 30 months in used barriques.
