Molino Loco Monastrell 6x75cl Based in Yecla, Familia Castaño is known for its huge efforts to promote one of Spain's native varieties, Monastrell. Castaño symbolises the best of what southern Spain has to offer: rich, warm-climate wines, with almost Syrah-like complexity, which overdeliver in terms of value year after year. Monastrell was once used exclusively for bulk wines and blending, but Castaño began bottling characterful, single-varietal Monastrell in the 1980s. Today, in the expert hands of Daniel Castaño and his family, the variety maintains high quality even at moderate to generous yields. 80% of the family's 600 hectares of vineyards are dedicated to Monastrell. Molino loco is the affectionate name for the windmill which is situated next to our bodega, in the ancient vineyards of Yelcia, South East Spain.The Yelcia climate is perfect for growing vines, with over 3000 hours of sunshine every year to ripen the intense strawberry, blackberry and spice aromas of the Monastrell grape. The grapes were 100% hand picked from 50 year old vines, to preserve the pure, fruit character. Molino Loco Monastrell is round and juicy, perfect to drink on its own or with red meats.
