Casa Castillo - Jumilla 'El Molar' Garnacha - 2021

El Molar comes from the slopes of the Sierra del Molar, a mountain on the edge of the property where the limestone gravel has receded to leave course sandy loam over limestone bedrock. It's roughly 50% whole bunch, indigenous yeast fermented and aged in a combination of 5,000l and 500l used foudre. Pale coloured, delicate red cherry lifted by lavender all wrapped in a bramble of Mediterranean herb. Lush, silky texture on the palate but still really fresh with incredibly fine grained tannin. Stylish.  Importer Notes
