Montehigueras 2022 is a red wine made by Alberto Calleja, presented under the V.T. Castilla indication. From Tempranillo vineyards (Cencibel) in Castilla-La Mancha, this project focuses on enhancing old vineyards in the region through a respectful and non-interventionist method. The wine reflects a balanced and fresh style, combining the maturity of the continental climate with a process that prioritizes the natural expression of the grape. The barrel aging is moderate, designed to add complexity without masking the grape's own characteristics. On the nose, Montehigueras 2022 is expressive and clean, highlighting notes of ripe red and black fruit, accompanied by hints of spices and dried herbs. On the palate, the wine is balanced and structured, showcasing ripe tannins and a smooth texture. With good concentration, it maintains a fluid and easy-to-drink sensation, and its finish is persistent and harmonious, where the fruit remains the protagonist. This wine is versatile and gastronomic, perfect for pairing with meats, traditional dishes, or Mediterranean cuisine, offering a style that combines character and accessibility.
