As Spain's winemaking revolution matures, Jumilla continues to produce some of the world's great value wines. The region's native Monastrell, Mourvedre elsewhere, is one of the most prized varieties of Mediterranean Europe. And on account of the reliably hot, dry summers, ripeness is rarely an issue. Yet Jumilla has a diversity of terroirs, certain of which clearly transcend mere "value." And the wines of Bodegas Ego have done just that, thanks to a singular terroir and the perspective necessary to give it a meaningful voice. Their Parcela 11 is alluring blend of Monastrell, Syrah, and Petit Verdot, aged 12 months in premium oak barrels, and one of the most exciting value wines from Spain. Even Wine Enthusiast rated it 91 points at the release price of $35!
"Inky garnet to the eye, this wine has aromas of blackberry, cassis and thyme. There is a sense of brightness on the palate with flavors of raspberry, black cherry, caramel and dried Mediterranean herbs. Weightless tannins touch down on the palate and dissolve into an orange zest finish." The Wine Enthusiast, 91 Points
