A fantastic Monastrell from this rising Valencian winery. The nose is full of fresh berries and wild herbs. It leads to a juicy palate full of cherries, blackberries, and toasted oats. There's a a little earthy spice form 4 months in oak barrels too. A very approachable red there's vibrant energetic acidity and well-integrated tannins with long and complex finish that's like a rustic farm at harvest time. Easy drinking enough to enjoy on its own or with food.
Try this with smoky pork or bean stew.
"I love trying regional specialties and this expression of Monastrell is a real taste of Valencia. The wine is a juicy drop of dark berry fruits that is a little like a lighter, rustic Malbec full of balsamic, herbal depth. I'd enjoy this with a grilled lamb chop."
This small family winery has been producing authentic wines from scarce native varieties since 2013. Gabriel and Alberto Sanchis Mestre, transformed their family wine business to one focused on bottling their own wines from the local, traditional varieties, while expressing their personality as young wine-makers and oenologists. With respect for the environment using a sustainable, organic process and minimum intervention in the winery, they revive their family history and aim to surprise the rest of the world from Ontinyent, an inland town mid-way between Valencia and Murcia, and 50km from the coast.
“If it were only a matter of producing any old wine, I wouldn’t do this. With my work I want to rescue the wine-making history of Ontinyent, modernising it and giving it the importance it deserves, but without forgetting that I’m here and I want to surprise people”. Gabriel Sanchis
90% of the wine is made of Monastrell, from 20 and 40 year old vineyards, and the other 10% is made up of Garnatxa that they farm from a rented piece of adjoining property. The grapes are naturally fermented in stainless steel vats before the wine rests in used French barrique for 4 months.
