Description
In a nutshell:
Fresh and fruity de-alcoholised Spanish red, a vibrant, juicy burst of Monastrell
The lowdown:
The pleasing dark cherry colour is what first catches your eye about this alcohol-free Spanish red from Jumilla, in the sun-drenched southeast. Bursting with ripe blackberry and cherry aromas, there's also a touch of spice adding complexity to the nose. After pressing and fermentation, the alcohol is carefully removed in a process that preserves the wine's essential character. The result? A smoothly balanced, complex, and satisfying red wine - just without the alcohol.
The Producer:
Bodegas Luzón is named after the Philippines island of Luzon where founder Don José de Molina retired from in the 19th century to set up the estate, is a major player in the Jumilla region of southeast Spain. Here, the Monastrell grape is king, and Luzón's range is built around it, producing wines that showcase the variety's power and depth. However, they don't stop at Monastrell. Their portfolio also includes a number of whites, showing diversity and a commitment to innovation. Importantly, Luzón is embracing organic production, a move that reflects a growing awareness of sustainable viticulture in the region. As one of Jumilla's largest and most respected producers, Luzón's reputation is a good advert for the quality and potential of wines from this sunny corner of Spain.
When to drink:
This soft, juicy red pairs beautifully with a platter of hard cheese and charcuterie, a bowl of pasta, roast poultry or red meats.
