Finca Bacara, Time Waits for No One Monastrell 2024

Get to know: Finca Bacara, Time Waits for No One Monastrell 2024

A bold and characterful Spanish red wine from the sun-soaked region of Jumilla in south-eastern Spain.

Tasting Note

Finca Bacara Time Waits for No One Monastrell is a rich yet finely balanced red that brings together vibrant fruit, spice, and a hint of earthy minerality. Deep ruby in colour, it opens with expressive aromas of wild berries, violets, and vanilla. On the palate, it’s juicy and full-flavoured, with ripe plum, dark cherry, and a touch of balsamic complexity. The texture is smooth and warming, lifted by a thread of freshness and finishing long with hints of spice and soft tannins. A beautifully made Monastrell from Jumilla that’s both generous and refined.

Top food pairings:

  • Slow-cooked lamb shoulder with rosemary and garlic
  • Chargrilled vegetables and smoky aubergine dip
  • Mature Manchego cheese
Kate Says

"A really lovely wine. Not as jammy as other Monastrells but more complex for it – loads of fruit, warmth, and that lovely earthy edge. Perfect with roast lamb or something slow-cooked on a chilly evening."
