Bodegas Castaño Hécula Monastrell 2009, Do Yecla Bottle
Bodegas Castaño Hécula Monastrell 2009, Do Yecla
Spain
$12.60

The vintage currently available in the LCBO is 2011. I can say that it is extraordinarily mediocre. There are far better Spanish wines for $5 more per bottle. The 2011 is quite bad, at least now...maybe they'll be drinkable in 2017 but I doubt it.

Marqués De Cáceres Gran Reserva 2001, Doca Rioja Bottle

Really nothing special here. For the same price, if you can find it, buy Vina Rioja Alta Alberdi Reserva 2003. This is a significantly better wine. Really, this Rioja (Marques) is a dud and for $30.00 there are far better choices.
