With a Parker rating of 98/100, the 2021 Red Jumilla Las Gravas surpasses all expectations. Showcasing remarkable finesse, this wine reveals layers of voluptuousness and freshness, embodying a distinctly Mediterranean style built on power and energy. Its intensely chalky finish enhances its vibrant character. This blend of Mourvèdre with 10% Grenache, aged in large wooden foudres, is destined for great success. Simply superb! |
