D.O.Jumilla/Los Yesares 0.75l
Los Yesares is an elegant red wine from Bodegas Cerrón in the D.O. Jumilla area, made from old Monastrell bush vines grown on limestone soils at higher altitude.
The wine captivates with pronounced minerality, notes of red and black fruit, Mediterranean herbs and delicate spice.
On the palate it is concentrated yet very elegant, with fine tannins and a long, fresh finish.
It pairs wonderfully with lamb, game, grilled meats or mature cheeses.
Los Yesares comes from the family winery Bodega Cerrón, located in the D.O. Jumilla area in the Spanish region of Murcia. This winery focuses on organic and biodynamic viticulture and the restoration of old, historic vineyards in the hilly landscape around the village of Fuente-Álamo.
Los Yesares is a wine with great ageing potential.
Vineyard:
The grapes for Los Yesares come from old, own-rooted vineyards (pie franco) planted from the 1940s onward, lying at an altitude of around 900 m on limestone and sandy soils with flint. These conditions give the wine its pronounced minerality and structure.
Grape varieties:
The wine is made predominantly from Monastrell (~94%), supplemented by a small percentage of local varieties such as Moravia Agria.
Production:
The grapes are hand-harvested, fermentation takes place spontaneously using natural yeasts, and the subsequent maceration lasts several weeks. The wine ages for approximately 12 months in used French oak barrels before being bottled without fining or filtration.
Taste and aroma:
In the glass the wine has a deep ruby colour. The nose is elegant and fruity, with pronounced notes of ripe red fruit (cherries, raspberries), complemented by delicate herbal and floral nuances and mineral touches. On the palate the wine is medium-bodied, with bright acidity, fine tannins and a mineral-fruity character, leading to a long and harmonious finish.
Food pairing:
It pairs wonderfully with dishes made from red meat, grilled lamb, game or mature cheeses. It is recommended to serve it at around 16–18 °C.
Alcohol content: 14%
Awards:
The 2022 vintage received a very high score of 95+ points from The Wine Advocate / Robert Parker, confirming its quality among Spanish red wines.
