Discover the grape variety: Berdomenel

Simple, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a supple palate with moderate acidity and undemonstrative aromas of citrus and white flowers. Discreet rustic profile. Preserved in some ampelographic collections as a heritage variety whose commercial diffusion has disappeared, studied for its genetic and historical interest. Rare, little-documented white grape grown in negligible quantities.

The wine region of Yecla

DO of Murcia on sunny high plateaus, kingdom of Monastrell (Mourvèdre, ~80% of the vineyard, min. 60% in red). Dense solar signature reds with notes of blackberry, candied black cherry, garrigue, leather, liquorice and a hint of sweet spices, firm tannins and warm palate — historic land of the grape. Round Garnacha, supple Tempranillo, peppery Syrah, firm Cabernet.


The wine region of Murcie

Wine region of southeastern Spain on sunny high plateaus, 3 DOs fanning out: Jumilla, Yecla, Bullas. Monastrell (Mourvedre) reigns in red (~80% of the vineyard): dense and sunny with signature notes of black mulberry, candied black cherry, garrigue, leather, liquorice and a sweet spice touch, firm tannins and a warm palate — pomegranate robe, sustained alcohol, often own-rooted. Round Grenache, supple Tempranillo, peppery Syrah. Southern wines with outstanding value.

The word of the wine: Broker

In the past, he was a sort of fraud control agent who had to watch over the quality of merchant wines (he could carry a sword!). His function has evolved towards expertise (it was the brokers who established the famous 1855 classification in Bordeaux) and today he puts the producer in contact with the merchant.
