Pedrera Monastrell
£9.61
From a producer with over 100 years of wine heritage, the Paco Mulero wines are produced from vines cultivated in the north-eastern part of Jumilla - on high slopes with poor chalky, sandy soils. Particularly of note are those made from old, low-yielding Monastrell bush vines; one of Spain’s most ancient varieties, the grape is well suited to the arid climate of Jumilla.
"The Monastrell grapes hand-harvested then macerated for around three weeks, then pressed, and the resulting wine is aged for 6 to 8 months in new French oak. Powerful aromas of ripe dark berry fruit with a hint of chocolate. The palate has ripe plums and spicy oak characters balanced by supple tannins and fresh acidity. A complex, full-bodied wine with great appeal, concentration and length. Pair with rich sausages and casseroles, or hearty bean and mushroom dishes.
Tasting Note:
