l actually can’t put into words how happy this photo makes me. @lagravera wines are some absolute stunners coming out of Catalunya, Spain and it was a blast to finally meet these talented women! As one of two female Wine Merchants in the State of VIC, and the only female winemaker in the room, the four of us needed to grab this pic 💜 A big thanks to @nickssrose and @winewithsheds for this opportunity!
Located along Spain’s Costa Blanca, the Alicante DOP benefits from a variety of micro-climates and terrain that includes a coastline brimming with Mediterranean influences, lush fertile valleys and a backdrop of mountainous sierras. Additionally, the sandy soil found here doesn’t retain water well and therefore, vineyards experience less disease pressure from fungal infections. As a result, several vineyards are able to farm organically or even biodynamically. Subregions La Marina Alta La Marina Baja El Comtat L´Alcoiá Alicantí Vinalopó Alto Vinalopó Medio Vinalopó Bajo Due to its versatile terroir, the Alicante DOP is blessed with an array of grape varieties that can successfully grow here. Monastrell is the most widely planted variety and comprises of about 75% of all plantings while Muscat of Alexandria (Moscatel de Alejandria) is the second most popular grape variety planted. Other varieties that grow well here are Garnacha, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Merseguera, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Merlot, Bobal, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Girò. Warm days and cool nights during the growing season enable the grapes develop desirable acidity and sugar levels along with elegant complexities. Rather than developing overcooked fruit flavours and aromas, the wines from this region are filled with fresh fruit and in some cases floral aromas along with hints of the cooling Mediterranean influences. #vinosdealicante #alicante #vino #a #vinosdeespa #vi #marinaalta #vinoespa #catadevinos #wine #ol #vinoteca #oles #moscatel #vinosespa #verema #mosel #kerpen #riesling #coallagourmet #vinoaleman #catas #asdelvero #somontano #winestories #villajoyosa #elabir #latrova #merseguera #barolowine

Enjoy a Syrah, or as the Austrians call it, a Shiraz? If so, try a Monastrell, a deeply bold, smoky red wine that is perfect with smoked meats and barbecue.
