Bodegas Hacienda Monasterio 2020 Azienda Agricola Barone Cornacchia Both will allow the wineThe 2020 Hacienda Monasterio shows what Sisseck calls a "neo classical" style of Ribera, with more freshness and 14. 5% alcohol, harvested early and with higher yields. And possibly because of the Cabernet in the blend (around 10%), which also includes some Merlot and Malbec, the wine has great freshness (pH is 3. 5) and avoids some of the excesses from the past. So, higher yields, an earlier harvest and careful oaking resulted in a more elegant wine.
