2023 Bodegas Cerron Matas Altas Monastrell Cellar fresh bread

fresh bread

possibly the best year for the white and a year they think was better for the white than for the reds

This is old school winemaking produced with low yields and large barrels

and a clean saline finish driven by the ancient Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils beneath the vines

not quality

2023 Bodegas Cerron Matas Altas Monastrell Cellar fresh breadThe 2023 Bodegas Cerrn "Matas Altas" is a biodynamically farmed Monastrell from ungrafted old vines in Fuente lamo, Jumilla plum skins, tobacco leaf, pink peppercorn, and Mediterranean herbs on the nose, with a juicy, silky palate, chalky minerality, and a long, precise finish that feels nothing like the brawny Jumilla of old. Siblings Juanjo, Luca, and Carlos Cerdn are the fourth generation to work these ancient limestone vineyards at 850940 meters
