Casa Castillo, Monastrell, Jumilla, Murcia, Spain 2021

A fresh juicy wine, with a lovely purity of fruit, sourced from younger vines across the property.

Viticulture is certified organic. Grapes are fermented with indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled stainless steel, with a short maceration period. Wine then spends 8-9 months in neutral 500 litre oak casks and concrete tanks. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Casa Castillo is the preeminent estate in the Jumilla DO. Grapes are sourced
from younger vines, mainly from La Valle vineyard at around 750-800 meters. Soils are calcareous, and loamy in texture; vines are dry-farmed, head-pruned; age ranges from 15 to 45 years.
