Parajes del Valle Monastrell

Many families have chosen to plant a grape known as Monastrell (Mourvedre in France). A native grape particularly suited to the regions unique climate and location. It produces an explosive taste that’s savory and floral, with some brooding black plum fruit and a kitchen rack mix of spices.
