2021 Bodegas Carchelo Eya Monastrell

This estate was founded in 1990 at the foot of the Sierra de Carche, a protected regional park in Jumilla, Murcia. The vineyards range in altitude between 487-1372m and benefit from a continental-Mediterranean climate. They are organic and produce some of the best fruit in this exciting area. 

Tasting note: 
Appearance: Medium-high intensity, clean and bright with vivid red tones and violet rims, typical of Monastrell. 
Nose: Floral, with intense aromas of black, forest and stone fruits with balsamic nuances. 
Palate: Fresh, with medium structure and pleasant mid palate and good  acidity. Medium-length finish.
Perfect for all kinds of starters, creamy or medium-ripened cheeses, white meats and rice dishes.
