Monastrell
The Monastrell grape is a strong variety with a thick skin and also known as Mourvèdre. The Monastrell grape is called Mourvèdre in France and, in addition to the powerful wines of Bandol, it is also used there to give the best Châteauneuf-du-Papes more complexity and that soft-fleshed structure to bite into. The grape needs heat and humidity and is only convincing with an alcohol content of at least 12%. Young wine has a modest aroma, but the wine can acquire a so-called "admiring complexity" as it matures.
What does wine from the Monastrell grape taste like?
Monastrell grapes produce intensely fruity, fleshy, earthy, high-alcohol, balanced wines with aromas of blackcurrants, blackberries, leather and spices. The wines also have beautiful, full-bodied tannins. These wines are an excellent combination with meat and game
At Grandcruwijnen, we think it is important that people can find their preferred flavor. That is why we came up with the idea of the sample box. This does not just consist of a number of wines, but of themed wines specially selected by our vinologists. With the sample boxes you can try different wines and find your own taste.
