About this product
Drink it now or cellar for up to 25 years. It is recommended to decant it for half an hour. Casa Castillo is a Spanish winery founded in 1991. The estate was purchased by Jos Snchez-Cerezo and his wife Julia Roch Melgares in the 1940s, on the site of an old winery from the late 1800s, but it was only in the 1980s that the second generation of the family decided to renovate the vineyards and start producing wine again. Today the company, which has about 150 hectares of vineyards, is led by Jos M Vicente, grandson of Jos Snchez-Cerezo. Pie Franco is an elegant red wine with a Mediterranean character. It is produced with 100% Monastrell grapes hand-picked from old ungrafted vineyards planted in the 1940s and located in the Jumilla wine region on naturally sandy soils. After fermentation in stone vats with indigenous yeasts, the wine rests for 20 months in large barrels. In the glass, the wine has a bright color with soft cherry tones. Its aromatic profile is delicate and broad, with notes of cherries and fresh red fruits, violets, and aromatic herbs, and a clear mineral touch. On the palate, it is complex and intense, with a lively and refreshing acidity and a juicy character. It has a soft texture and velvety tannins. The finish is long and recalls spicy and balsamic notes. It reveals good aging potential but can also be enjoyed now paired with roast pork or green pepper steak.
