2019 Casa de las Monjas, Clos de Lom, DO Valencia

Monastrell

The Casa Las Monjas from Clos de Lom is made from 60 year old Monastrell (Mouvedre) vines grown organically in the mountains south east of Valencia.  This delicious wine has a great depth and spiciness making it at once immediately appealing, yet capable of ageing further in bottle. Packed with dark fruits, hints of chocolate and spice mingling with herbal notes, this is the maiden release of this very limited wine.  The wine was fermented in stainless steel, following a cold maceration for 10 - 15 days, and was then transferred to French oak barrels for 2 years.  The wine rested for a furtehr year in bottle prior to release.

2023 Tempranillo, Clos de Lom, Valencia

Tempranillo

The Clos de Lom Tempranillo is a wonderful wine, deep red in colour with youthful purple hues. Intense and complex on the nose with hints of black fruits. The palate is fruit packed with more silky dark fruits and well-integrated ripe tannins. The finish is long and classy, and simply begs for another glass to be poured.

Luis XIV Vermut Rojo, Fondillon

The fabulous Luis XIV Vermut Rojo is a blend of 70% young Vermut made from a base of Macabeo that has been macerated with traditional botanicals including wormwood and also a secret blend of cinnamon, cloves vanilla and orange peel.  This is blended with 30% Monastrell which has been aged oxidatively for 8 years, with a further two months in ancient Fondillon barrels.  The Monastrell gives the Vermut a wonderful garnet colour and adds richness to the wine.  Rich, with balanced notes of herbs and spice witha bit more body than other styles, this terrific Vermut is delicious with ice and a slice of orange peel.  It also comes in a quirky bottle which not only looks great but has stencilled writing that glows in the dark!
