2021 Barahonda Monastrell, Yecla, SpainABOUT THIS WINE This wine is made from estate owned grapes. It is 100% un oaked and one of the few 100% Monastrell wines from Yecla, in the Murcia Region. Normally, winemakers in Yecla blend Monastrell with other grapes. The vines are situated in high altitude vineyards, at 713 meters (2,339 ft.) elevation, which results in pretty, almost floral wines that contrast with other Monastrell wines, which can show more animal and barnyard characters.
