Tasting Notes

This Monastrell opens with strawberry, wild strawberry, crunchy cranberry, blackberry, red currant, crushed cranberry, sour cherry, sweet plum, leather, tobacco, spice, floral tones, bacon fat, and black olive. The palate is bright, fresh, energetic, and medium-bodied, with lively red fruit, herbal accents, grainy tannins, cassis, bold spice, and a long pure finish.

Food Paring

Pair this Jumilla Monastrell with grilled meat, steak, kebabs, beef Bourgogne, lamb, pasta, or game to complement its dark fruit and grippy tannins. Its fresh berry profile, herbal lift, and savory olive notes also make it a strong match for barbecue plates, roasted vegetables, and casual tapas.

Professional Reviews

92 Club Oenologique

"Bright and fresh, bursting with wild strawberry and crunchy cranberry on the nose, before notes of sour cherry alongside herbal and floral tones on the palate. Lifted, vibrant and energetic."

91 Andreas Larsson

"Medium-deep garnet towards ruby. Spicy and peppery nose, with sweet plum, red berries, leather, and tobacco notes. Medium weight, rather flavour intense, with a fresh backbone, grainy tannin, a bold spiciness, and a long, pure finish."

90 Wine Enthusiast

"Made with organic grapes, muted aromas unfurl in your glass unleashing aromas of strawberry, bacon fat, blackberry, red currant and crushed cranberry. Grippy tannins crave grilled meat on the palate that delivers additional flavors of black olive and cassis. Pair with steak, kebabs and beef Bourgogne."
