Description

Winemaker Bodegas Luzón on the winery

“For generations, we have been deeply connected to Jumilla, the rugged heart of southeastern Spain. Our history dates back to the 19th century, and it revolves around one grape: Monastrell. We combine this rich heritage with modern winemaking techniques and respect for our environment. We are constantly looking for ways to express the unique character of our vineyards. Because it is in this warm, dry landscape that Monastrell produces wines unlike any other.”

And on Jumilla, Spain

“On the high-altitude vineyards of Jumilla, around 650 to 700 metres above sea level, Monastrell finds its natural home. Limestone-rich soils, hot days and cool nights produce small grapes packed with flavour while retaining freshness. For our Altos de Luzón, we use exclusively organically grown Monastrell. After careful selection and fermentation, the wine spends twelve months ageing in French and American oak barrels. The result combines the power and ripeness of southern Spain with refined tannins, spice and subtle oak notes.”
