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.
