Wine 6.  Escobera Jumilla  2002        £6.99        Club price  £5.59
Region: Jumilla, Spain
Grape: Monastrel, Syrah
Notes: The warm climate is moderated by the high altitude of the vineyards which beneficially extends the ripening period of the grapes.  The Tinto is made from 85% Monastrell, which is particularly well suited to the hot conditions here and produces a wine with fresh, dark fruit, some peppery, spicy flavours and smooth, balanced tannins. In 2002 all the fruit which normally goes into the better Crianza, instead went into this wine.’‘Rich and aromatic, with good depth and concentrated southern Spanish fruit.
