The wine region of Jumilla
Arid south-east Spain, kingdom of Monastrell (Mourvèdre, >85% of vineyards). Powerful, sunny reds with signature notes of candied blackberry, black plum, garrigue, pepper, leather and liquorice, firm tannins and a warm palate — a world reference for the grape. Many ungrafted old vines (phylloxera spared the limestone soils). Also supple Tempranillo, peppery Syrah, round Garnacha.
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: White Grenache
White grape variety cultivated mainly in Spain and a little in the south of France (southern Rhône valley, Languedoc-Roussillon). It is the white variety of Grenache noir. It is used in the blending of several white wines (dry wines or natural sweet wines) to which it gives richness, fatness and floral notes.
