Jumilla
TheJumilla appellation is located in southeastern Spain, in a transition zone between the Mediterranean coast and the Castilla La Mancha plateau. The production area is characterized by wide valleys and plains surrounded by mountains. The "Denominación de Origen" label was granted in 1966 for a vast area surrounding the town of Jumilla in the province of Murcia, and for vineyards in the municipalities of Montealegre del Castillo , Fuenteálamo , Ontur , Hellin , Albatana and Tobarra in the province of Albacete.

The Jumilla vineyards are planted on brown, brown-limestone and lime soils that have a great capacity to retain water. This enables the vines to survive in prolonged drought conditions. The climate in the Jumilla region is continental, influenced by the proximity of the Mediterranean to the east and the La Mancha plateau to the west. This dry, sunny climate is highly conducive to vine ripening. With over 80% of the vineyard, the emblematic grape variety of the Jumilla appellation is Monastrel, a typically Spanish grape that expresses itself perfectly on this terroir. The appellation also allows Cencibel, Grenache, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and Petit Verdot for red wines. The white wines of Jumilla use both native and foreign grape varieties: Airen, Macabeo , Pedro Ximénez, Malvasia, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Petit Moscatel and Verdejo. The appellation's rosé wines are particularly popular.

The Jumilla appellation offers the best of its terroir and the finest expressions of Monastrel in the vintages produced by Crapula Wines.

90/100 Robert Parker

"Cuvée de Monastrell, Carmine 2010 is vinified in open vats, then transferred to barrel for malolactic fermentation, where the wine is aged for 10 months. The aromas of smoked bacon and black olive are more reminiscent of a Rhône varietal than a Jumilla. Full-bodied on the palate, with good texture and moderate acidity, revealing concentration and power. Modern and very well crafted, difficult to identify terroir or varietal, it should pair very well with powerful dishes." (Wine Advocate 2015)

91/100 Penin

"Fuerza 2011 is a blend of mainly Monastrell and Cabernet Sauvignon, traditionally fermented and aged 12 months in barrels. The nose develops aromas of black cherry and a blend of sparte, Mediterranean herbs, paprika and tree bark. The palate is rather spicy, supported by fine, well-presented tannins." (Wine Advocate 2015 - Robert Parker) Excellent value for money!
