Quinta da Muradella Candea Tinto 2020, Quinta da Muradella, Monterrei. This juicy Spanish red blend dominated by Mencía with Garnacha Tintorera, Mouratón and Arauxa (Tempranillo) from granite and slate vineyards bursts with wild berries, fresh flowers, herbs and grenadine perfume on the nose. On the palate, Candea Tinto 2020 delivers straightforward fleshy succulence, ripe berry core, medium body, fine balance and raw authentic freshness that lingers with tasty poise – pure morish delight without excess.

Fermented naturally for vibrant authenticity from Galicia’s rugged interior, it’s a smashable crowd-pleaser screaming everyday value. Pair the 2020 Candea Tinto with barbecued chorizo, roast lamb cutlets or mushroom paella to unleash its herb-tinged joy. Snag this benchmark Monterrei red now – it’ll vanish fast from your cellar. 92+ points, Luis Gutiérrez, The Wine Advocate.​
