Monastrell (Mourvèdre) is a red wine from Spain, known for its deep ruby color and rich, full-bodied taste. This wine has a bold aroma of dark fruit, such as blackberry and plum, with hints of spice and earthiness. On the palate, it is full-bodied with firm tannins and flavors of ripe berries, black pepper, and a long, smooth finish. Monastrell pairs perfectly with grilled meats, game, and hearty stews. Its bold, complex nature makes it a versatile wine that complements both casual and elegant dining experiences.
