Supple and fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, melted tannins and fresh acidity, with aromas of red fruits (raspberry, cherry, strawberry), soft spices and floral notes. A light, thirst-quenching style, best drunk young, often by carbonic maceration. Grown in California as "Napa Gamay" and in Languedoc IGPs. An autochthonous south-west variety once ubiquitous in France, now in revival for modern cuvées.

The wine region of Alicante
DOP of the southeast of Valencia, land of Monastrell (Mourvedre) under Mediterranean sun. Dense, sun-soaked reds with signature notes of blackberry, candied plum, garrigue, leather, cocoa and sweet spices, firm tannins and a warm palate. A mythical jewel: Fondillon, a naturally sweet wine from Monastrell raisined on the vine, solera-aged >=8 years, 16-18% alcohol, only ~10 cellars (Vinalopo). Also Muscat of Alexandria as a floral sweet wine (orange blossom, honey).
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.
