  98% Garnache and 2% Cariñena from a single vineyard, 800 meters in Cadalso de los Vidrios located between pine forests, lavenders and horps, with a soil of fine sand and granite rock boats. It is vinified with 100% grape stem, indigenous yeasts and long macerations with minimal extraction. Aging of more than a year in French oak barrels of different sizes. Floral, fresh red fruit, spicy, mineral, powerful, elegant, balanced and with a marked acidity that invites you to repeat. 950 bottles. Needs oxygen to be able to show itself.

  Very lifted and bright nose of red fruits and spice, with some earth. On palate I found this just a touch too acidic. Gentle tannins balanced it a bit but, although this is the style, I found it a little too in the austere side which the bracing acidity only added too. Its a lovely wine, I just wonder if a few more years wouldn't benefit this and balance it out

  Bonne claque avec ce vin, quel délice. 4 Monos c'est l'association de quatre vignerons (quatre singes) de Vinos de Madrid qui produisent principalement de la grenache d'altitude, un peu à l'image de Comando G dans un style frais et on ne peut s'empêcher de penser un cliché "à la Reynaud", clairement l'inspiration principale. La Isilla est une parcelle de grenache quasi-centenaire, avec une touche de Carignan, élevé en vielles barriques de 300L 12 mois et sans égrappage.
  
  La couleur est pâle et le nez superbe, floral et épicé, avec une touche de petits fruits rouges. La bouche suave et typique du cépage, mais un ami errait d'abord sur un pinot allemand de haut niveau, ce qui témoigne du profil intéressant. J'aime particulièrement la finale serrée et très Charvin avec la signature de la rafle. Il a selon moi tout pour bien évoluer et les prochaines bouteilles attendront quelques années, vraiment une belle découverte. 93+
