Production
El Tesoro Monastrell Shiraz is made from grapes grown in the northwest of Jumilla; old bush vine Monastrell planted in chalky soils, and Shiraz grown in sandy soils on younger, trellised vines. Vinification is carried out at the winery in the heart of the Juan Gil vineyard area. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel, temperature controlled, and the juice maintains contact with the skins during this 10-day process.
Tasting Notes
Full, ripe black fruits and appealing warm spice on the nose with damson flavours, generous round fruit, smooth tannins and a fresh finish. Match with rich pasta dishes with salami or ham or a meaty lasagne.
