Bodegas y Viñedos de Murcia
Bodegas y Viñedos de Murcia operates in Jumilla, a region in southeastern Spain known for its continental climate and mineral-rich soils that favor dark-skinned varieties. The winery works primarily with Monastrell, the indigenous grape of the region, often blended with Petit Verdot and Malbec to add structure and depth. Pico Madama, a Petit Verdot and Monastrell blend, represents the winery's top expression, while Sierra Carche—a three-varietal blend incorporating Petit Verdot, Monastrell, and Malbec—demonstrates the winery's approach to balancing local character with international grape varieties. Both wines have been assessed by Wine Advocate. Jumilla's elevation and continental conditions produce wines with natural concentration and tannin ripeness, qualities evident in the winery's portfolio.
