Intense cherry red color. On the nose, ripe red and black fruits stand out, fine herbal notes of thyme, a soft touch of cocoa and subtle spices . On the palate, it is juicy and lively, with round tannins, fresh minerality, and a vibrant persistence .

Ideal with red meats, grilled lamb, stews, Mediterranean barbecue, and aged cheeses.

The altitude and limestone soils give this old-school Monastrell a firm and vibrant heartbeat. With every sip, you can feel the breeze of Jumilla, the echo of centuries-old vines, and the promise of a landscape that flows, firm and authentic, in every drop.
