The2008 Cellar Besslum from the MontSant region of Spain is just one of those "why have I never heard of this?" wines. It is rated 93 points by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate and retails in BC government liquor stores for just $19.99.
A red blend of Carinena 45%, Garnacha 45%, Syrah 10%, it is dark, with "aromas of blackberry, blueberry, exotic spices, lavender, mineral," say the winemaker's notes.
UPDATE - And despite my telling everyone about this great wine, the BC Liquor Stores still have almost 3,000 bottles left as of December 14, 2013!
