(100% Monastrell)

Classic Monastrell (Mourvedre, in the French...), very nicely balanced for the price tag. Rich, dark, earthy fruits and pepper, with some high floral, rose petal notes.

A little about the producer
One of Spain's true pioneers, Telmo Rodriguez farms biodynamically, emphasising indigenous grapes and some of the lesser known regions alongside those already firmly on the map - yet another producer ticking all of the boxes we're looking for. Mixing traditional techniques with a uniquely modern style (maybe the best-looking labels on this site?), the wines have real character and a great way to get to grips with the varied terroir that Spain has to offer.
