Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

I also tasted two vintages of the entry-level red. The 2021 GR-10 Tinto was produced with 85% Garnacha and 15% Cariñena. which was fermented with full clusters and matured in barrels of different sizes and one 4,200-liter oak vat for seven months. It has 13.5% alcohol and very good freshness. There's more Cariñena in this 2021 than in the 2020, and it has a lighter color—they used a vineyard that wasn't used in 2020, and it delivers lighter-colored wines. This is surprisingly harmonious and bright. It's fine-boned, medium-bodied and zippy, though maybe the tannins are not as perfect as those of the 2020, and it has some grip; but this comes through as very harmonious and elegant. A bargain! 23,592 bottles and 411 magnums produced. It was bottled in September 2022.

Features

Description

4 Monos GR-10 is a wine from the Denominación de Origen Vinos de Madrid, made mainly from Garnacha, Syrah and Cariñena grapes. The grapes are harvested from vineyards that are between 30 and 85 years old, located at altitudes of 700 to 800 metres. This environment provides ideal conditions for growing grapes with a unique character.

Winemaking

The grapes are harvested by hand, and the whole bunches are vinified, with stems, which contributes to the complexity of the wine. Fermentation is spontaneous, using indigenous yeasts. The wine is then aged for 9 months in used French oak barrels and foudres, followed by 2 months in concrete tanks. This ageing process adds subtlety and depth to the wine, while respecting its fruity and fresh character.

Taste

4 Monos GR-10 is characterised by its floral aromatic profile, with prominent notes of violets and lilacs. On the palate, it presents high acidity, which makes it versatile for pairing with a variety of dishes, including fish. Red fruit flavours, such as raspberries and sour cherries, combine harmoniously with soft tannins, creating a balanced and pleasant taste experience. This wine is an excellent example of how the altitude and granitic soil of the Sierra de Gredos influence the expression of the grapes, resulting in a fresh and focused wine, ideal to enjoy on a variety of occasions.
