Bodega Cerron Monastrell Remordimiento 2023 75cl
£14.47
This wine shows the elegance of which Monastrell is capable, from the Mediterranean influence on the south-facing vineyards It has an approachable red fruit character, alongside hints of aromatic herbs Balanced and smooth on the palate, the flavours are pure and refined, with mineral hints It represents perfectly the style of the village of origin and its landscape 'Remordimiento' means 'remorse' - not implying this is how you'll feel after drinking it, but because Juanjo and Carlos Cerdan's parents had started out making a different type of wine before realising the error of their ways and making this style that is properly suited to their region
Bodega Cerron Matas Altas Monastrell 2022 75cl
£20.76
Wow! This has super-expressive, vibrant aromas, with notes of rosewater, just-ground black pepper, subtle woodiness and abundant, juicy fruitiness Bright, sparky, frank and vibrant, it is both a refreshing drink and a medium-bodied, nuanced wine worth the honour of contemplation and appreciation 'Matas' is slang for 'bush' in the region - in other words, old vines, planted on their own rootstocks (not grafted) Altas reflects the high elevation of the Fuente-Alamo area, whose calcareous soils, warm days and cold nights bring about wines with full ripeness and concentration, and at the same time, freshness, agility and finesse
