Bilaire Monastrell 2022

DO Alicante, Spain

Monastrell (100%) · 2022 · 14.5% abv

Proper Mediterranean Monastrell. Bustling with brooding dark fruit along with a herbaceous thyme, black olive filled character. A short ageing in used French oak softens the tannins while keeping a fresh, marked acidity.
Production

Hand-harvested at optimal ripeness and gently destemmed, the grapes ferment in open vats with 10–15 days of skin contact to build depth and aroma. Long, low-pressure pressing preserves texture before six months’ maturation in 3-year-old French oak brings subtle spice and roundness.

Vinyard

Planted at 650 m in Monóvar’s limestone-rich soils, the vines grow with upright vigour and ripen late under intense sun and cool nights. Dry-farmed and goblet-trained, they produce small yields of concentrated fruit that speak clearly of place.

Pairing

Ideal with slow-cooked lamb shoulder, grilled Iberian pork, or hearty chickpea and chorizo stew — dishes that mirror the wine’s depth and sun-baked character.
