The wines of Jumilla are the ambassadors of a town of contrasts, whose personality comes from the earth. It is surprising that from the sand and limestone screes, a geological legacy from the Triassic period, such a rich myriad of qualities can be obtained. From the golden Moscatel to the gourmand rosé, from the insolent red of the youngest Monastrell to the dominant scarlet of the crianzas aged in wood.
To understand the fighting spirit of the people from Jumilla, you must feel the relentless summer sun, the freezing winter chill and the contrast of temperatures. In this tenacity for life, land and farmer have learned to retain the scarce rainfalls and transform adversity into wines.
The grapes used in the production of this wine come from old vineyards. The chalky and rocky limestone soils very poor in nutrients make this an ideal location to grow grapes of Monastrell with a low yield of around 2,500 Kg/Ha.
My goal in starting a wine collective is to hand pick a unique, fun variety of wines from all over the world. To entice people to step out of the norm and be open to experiencing varietals and bottles that you may never have heard of, never knowing what you were missing! For you to awaken your palate to the bounty and abundance of unique, stunning, sexy wines from all across the globe. I hope wine tasting becomes a passion for you as it is for me! Prepare to be awed!
