The four wines from Casto Ventosa are 100% Mencia. The 2004 El Castro de Valtuille is dark ruby-colored with fragrant aromas and flavors of scorched earth, black raspberry, and black cherry. This is followed by a supple, ripe, structured wine with good flavors and excellent length. The wine has tannin to lose so plan on cellaring it for 2-3 years.
