PARAJES DEL VALLE MONASTRELL CERTIFIED ORGANIC

Parajes del Valle is an exciting winery established in 2018. Their vines have been in the young but experienced hands of Maria Jover, a 28 year old winemaker, who counts Vegas Sicilia as a previous employer.

Her modern views on winemaking are driving transformation of other wines in the area. The certified organic Monastrell grapes all come from old vines (15-40 years) split across four plots (Fountain of the Partridges, La Cañada de Albatana and the Termino de Arriba in the north of Jumilla). They are maintained by the age-old “Terraje" system, meaning that the vineyards are rented out to the farmers, who give back 7% of the production in turn for taking good care of the vines.

Juicy red fruits are framed by dense but approachable tannins and a long finish. Easy drinking, this goes perfectly with a rich dinner or just as well after a hard day. One of our best sellers, we're proud to say Cork was one of the first stores in Alberta to bring this fine wine in for our customers!
