Natalie's Score: 92/100

Barón de Ley Finca Monasterio 2018 is a dry, robust and muscular Tempranillo from the Rioja wine region. Inky dark violet in the glass, the wine is perfumed with dark cherry, black currant, pink roses, smoky and spicy as well. On the palate the wine is fleshy and meaty, rich with dark fruits, cherry compote, chocolate, anise, cedar brush flavours and wrapped up in grippy tannins. Needs a little time to unwind. Try in 2025 or cellar for 10-plus years.
